Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: None. Introduction  Due to the increase in global prevalence of degenerative valve disease, aortic stenosis (AS) has played a preponderant role in the cardiovascular scenario, especially in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). An alternative management for this patients are the cardiac rehabilitation programs (CRP); however, their effect has not been completely understood, both in exercise capacity and quality of life, but neither in the improvement of cardiopulmonary performance and other cardiovascular outcomes.  Purpose: To evaluate the effect of the CRP on exercise tolerance and cardiopulmonary performance in patients with AS undergoing TAVR.  Methods: A cohort study was conducted including 26 patients with AS undergoing TAVR and divided into an intervention group who performed a 4-week supervised training program in the Cardiac Rehabilitation Service and a control group to whom instructions and recommendations to performed unsupervised exercise at home were given. Demographic and clinical data (VO2Max, METS12, oxygen pulse, heart rate, double product, left ventricular ejection fraction, body mass index) were collected at baseline and after a 4-week follow-up. Results: 15 patients were included in the intervention group and 11 patients in the control group. There were no baseline significant differences between groups. After the intervention, significant differences were observed in the METS 12 final gain variable between the control and intervention group (4.55 vs 3.1 p = 0.01). Intergroup analysis showed significant differences (percentage changes) in the intervention group with an increase of METS12 (67.4%, p = 0.001), oxygen pulse (18.21%, p = 0.01), final METS (39.47% p = 0.001) and a decrease in VO2 recovery time (-12.5%, p = 0.05), in the ergometric performance index by heart rate (-38.17%, p = 0.001) and by double product (-38.1%, p = 0.001). Conclusions  A 4-week cardiac rehabilitation program is effective to improve exercise tolerance and cardiopulmonary response in patients with AS undergoing TAVR; improvement was statistically significant in METS12, oxygen pulse, VO2 recovery time, METS-load and ergometric performance index for heart rate and double product. METS12 final gain was statistically significant in intervention group in comparison with the control group. Abstract Figure. Control vs Intervention Group (METS12)

1. Three calves were individually exposed in a climatic room to an environment of 45° C. dry-bulb and 28° C. wet-bulb temperature for 21 successive days up to 5 hr. each day.2. In the 21-day period, mostly during the first half of it, the following changes in the physiological reactions of the animals were observed: progressive reductions in rectal temperature, in heart rate and in respiratory rate with a change of breathing from a laboured to a less laboured type.3. It was suggested that a decrease in metabolic heat production might play a part in the observed acclimatization.

Kayar, Susan R., and Erich C. Parker. Oxygen pulse in guinea pigs in hyperbaric helium and hydrogen. J. Appl. Physiol. 82(3): 988–997, 1997.—We analyzed O2 pulse, the total volume of O2 consumed per heart beat, in guinea pigs at pressures from 10 to 60 atmospheres. Animals were placed in a hyperbaric chamber and breathed 2% O2 in either helium (heliox) or hydrogen (hydrox). Oxygen consumption rate (V˙o 2) was measured by gas chromatographic analysis. Core temperature and heart rate were measured by using surgically implanted radiotelemeters. TheV˙o 2 was modulated over a fourfold range by varying chamber temperature from 25 to 36°C. There was a direct correlation betweenV˙o 2 and heart rate, which was significantly different for animals in heliox vs. hydrox ( P = 0.003). By using multivariate regression analysis, we identified variables that were significant to O2 pulse: body surface area, chamber temperature, core temperature, and pressure. After normalizing for all nonpressure variables, the residual O2 pulse was found to decrease significantly ( P = 0.02) with pressure for animals in heliox but did not decrease significantly ( P = 0.38) with pressure for animals in hydrox over the range of pressures studied. This amounted to a roughly 25% lower O2 pulse for normothermic animals in 60 atmospheres heliox vs. hydrox. These results suggest that reduction of cardiovascular efficiency in a hyperbaric environment can be mitigated by the choice of breathing gas.

Seven healthy men were studied in a 34-h constant routine protocol to investigate whether the daily rhythm of heat production and heat loss has an endogenous circadian component. Under these unmasking conditions (constant bed rest, no sleep allowed, regular food and fluid intake), a significant circadian rhythm could be demonstrated for heat production, heart rate, and skin temperatures but not for the respiratory quotient. Heat production and heart rate were phase locked with a maximum at 1100-1200 h. Proximal skin temperatures (infraclavicular region, thigh, and forehead) followed the same circadian rhythm as rectal temperature, whereas distal skin temperatures (hands and feet) were opposite in phase. These physiological circadian rhythm parameters, as well as biochemical parameters (urinary sodium, potassium, urea, and urine flow), were phase advanced by 25-180 min with respect to the circadian rhythm in rectal temperature. Our findings under unmasking conditions show that the circadian variation in rectal temperature is a consequence of endogenous circadian rhythms in both heat production and heat loss.
