TY - JOUR PY - 1977// TI - Radiotelemetric study of heart rate and electroencephalogram during parachute jumping JO - Revue D'électroencéphalographie et de Neurophysiologie Clinique A1 - Gauthier, P. A1 - Jouffray, L. A1 - Rodi, M. A1 - Gottesmann, C. SP - 219 EP - 224 VL - 7 IS - 2 N2 - Twelve subjects, experienced parachutists, have been recorded by telemetry before, during and after free-fall parachute jumps. The heart rate showed a statistically significant tachycardia during the different events of the jump (exit, free-fall, opening, open parachute and landing) compared to the baseline before boarding the aircraft. This tachycardia indicates a stress reaction confirmed by a significant increase of adrenalin and noradrenalin in urine. The electroencephalographic invesitgation does not show any adnormalities. Alpha rhythms have been recorded from alpha reactive subjects during free-fall stabilization.
