Treatment Details

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.

Primary outcome measures

Core body temperature will be measured from gastrointestinal temperature via an ingestible telemetric pill.

Secondary outcome measures

Arterial blood pressure will be measured using a standard arm blood pressure cuff.

Cardiac output (how much blood is ejected from the heart) will be measured using a nitrous oxide rebreathing approach.

Heart rate will be measured from ECG electrodes attached to the participant.
