Evaluation of free-floating tracheal intubation in weightlessness via ice-pick position with a direct laryngoscopy and classic approach with indirect videolaryngoscopy [PDF]
Long duration spaceflights to the Moon or Mars are at risk for emergency medical events. Managing a hypoxemic distress and performing an advanced airway procedure such as oro-tracheal intubation may be complicated under weightlessness due to ergonomic ...

Is the ICP pulse waveform P2/P1 ratio during -6° head-down tilt associated with relative VO2 peak? A non-invasive intracranial compliance monitoring approach [PDF]
Background: Spaceflights influence intracranial compliance (ICC). P2/P1 ratio, from the intracranial pressure (ICP) waveform, provides information about ICC. Additionally, non-invasive methods for ICC monitoring are needed for spaceflights.

Sensorimotor performance and haptic support in simulated weightlessness [PDF]
AbstractThe success of many space missions critically depends on human capabilities and performance. Yet, it is known that sensorimotor performance is degraded under conditions of weightlessness. Therefore, astronauts prepare for their missions in simulated weightlessness under water.
