Lower leg fluid displacement during a simulated space shuttle launch

Reductions in leg fluid volume of about 1/per leg or 10% of total leg volume have been reported during space flight. We wanted to test the hypothesis that a significant portion of these changes occur during the prelaunch and launch periods. Fluid volume changes in the lower leg were estimated in six...

description Reductions in leg fluid volume of about 1/per leg or 10% of total leg volume have been reported during space flight. We wanted to test the hypothesis that a significant portion of these changes occur during the prelaunch and launch periods. Fluid volume changes in the lower leg were estimated in six men during a simulated Space Shuttle launch. After 2 h in the launch position, i.e. supine with elevated legs, the subjects were exposed to 500 s of two to three times increased g force in the anterio-posterior direction in a human centrifuge. During the prelaunch period one lower leg lost a mean of (113 SD 53) ml of fluid and there was little or no additional fluid reduction during the period of increased g force. This compares with the 178-ml reduction of lower leg volume that has been reported during the 1st day of Shuttle missions. We concluded that a significant portion of the fluid reduction observed in the lower leg during the early stages of space flight had already occurred before the launch.
