Self-Generated Lower Body Negative Pressure Exercise: A Low Power Countermeasure for Acute Space Missions

Microgravity in spaceflight produces headward fluid shifts which probably contribute to Spaceflight-Associated Neuro-Ocular Syndrome (SANS). Developing new methods to mitigate these shifts is crucial for preventing SANS. One possible strategy is the use of self-generated lower body negative pressure...
