Using photoplethysmography, the arterial pulse and venous blood filling of vessels of the finger at the level of the right atrium and at 41 cm above and below it were measured. This corresponded to variations of the intravascular hydrostatic pressure within the range +/- 30 mm Hg. This test was performed before and after exposure to acceleration of 5, 7, 8 and 9 G for 30 s at an onset rate of 1.0 G/s in the horizontal and vertical position. Arterial and venous responses were determined by comparing the results obtained at extreme levels of hydrostatic pressure. In all cases, increase in hydrostatic pressure led to enhancement of arterial tone and venous blood filling. After exposure to acceleration arterial tone and venous blood filling grew to a greater extent, particularly in the horizontal position.

The test subjects were rotated in a 7.5 m arm centrifuge. The first exposure during which they were centrifuged at 4 G (+Gx and +Gz) served as a control. The second time they were exposed to centrifugation after diuretic administration. Prior to second exposure, the subjects showed increased diuresis (5.7 +/- 0.7 ml/min) and increased excretion of osmotically active compounds, including electrolytes. This led to a decrease of the circulating blood volume by 7.0 +/- 1.8% on an average. During centrifugation the following parameters were recorded: electrocardiogram, blood pressure in the arm and ear lobe vessels, ear pulsogram, and pneumogram. After diuretic intake +Gx tolerance remained essentially unchanged whereas +Gz tolerance was good but required greater efforts.
