Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Complete recovery time after exhaustion in high-intensity work

Notes: This study was aimed to investigate complete recovery time (CRT) after exhaustion in hight-intensity work. Twenty-four subject were divided into two groups based on the cardiorespiratory capability test. The CRT was significantly correlated with the cardiorespiratory capability index and the relative workload indices : RVO2 and RHR. The RVO2 was the average elevation in VO2 during work from the resting level as a percentage of maximum VO2 reserve. The RHR's definition was similar to that of RVO2. Based on the ontained CRT-prediction model, the CRT for a high-cardiorespiratory-capability person was 20.8, 22.1, 23.4, and 24.7 min at 50%, 60%, 70%, and 80% RHR levels, respectively. These suggusted CRT values should be increased by 10 min for a low-cardio-respiratory-capability personRelated records: En: Ergonomics. - London and Washington. - Vol. 48, nº 6, 15 May 2005 ; p. 668-679Materia / lugar / evento: Ergonomía Ejercicio físico Capacidad de trabajo Capacidad aerobia Consumo de oxígeno Otros autores: Hsu, Wen-Hsin
