Published in Heart Disease Weekly, November 12th, 2006

Body cooling attenuates the decrease in maximal oxygen uptake associated with cardiovascular drift during heat stress.

According to investigators in the United States, "Previous research suggests cardiovascular drift (CV drift) is associated with decreased maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max ) during heat stress, but more research manipulating CV drift with subsequent measurement of VO2max is needed to assess whether this relationship is causal."

"To assess causation, VO2max was measured during the same time interval that CV drift occurred (between 15 and 45 min of submaximal exercise under different conditions of body...
