Estimation of the Physiological Parameters of Heart-Rate and Oxygen-Consumption During Heat and Work Stress.

Abstract

The current research represents an attempt to formulate a mathematical model of the physiological parameters of heart-rate and oxygen consumption under varying heat levels and workloads. Stepwise multiple regression was performed to attempt to find a mathematical model for heart-rate (beats per minute), and oxygen-consumption (liters per minute). The models developed can be used to predict heart-rate and oxygen-consumption under varying thermal and workloads. Workload was found to correlate more strongly with heart-rate and oxygen-consumption than was heat level.
