Heat Strain Decision Aid (HSDA)

Should we consider body morphology when assigning personnel to thermally challenging duties? Nigel Taylor, 2017

Can we model aerobic fitness as a separate factor and distinguish high motivation (risk) from more effective cardiovascular response ?

Metabolic control interactions Ground squirrels and camels better tolerate high temperatures (>40 C), in part through decreased sensitivity of TRPV1 (transient receptor potential vanilloid 1) without changing response to capsaicin

Conclusions 1. aerobic fitness is a key modifiable factor that appears to significantly affect heat tolerance and performance in the heat needs to be quantitatively modeled 2. new taste perception biology related to sensations of coolness builds on previous Army investigations to improve drinking 3. fat macronutrient metabolism in the tropics has been a recurring research theme and can be resolved with modern metabolic methods, and underfeeding effects constitute related hypotheses 4. capsinoids increase non-thermal sweating but human studies have not carefully controlled for important moderating factors observed in animal studies or considered new insights to BAT regulation; 5. temperature moderates the quality of sleep but earlier studies on sleep architecture can now be extended outside of the laboratory to devise strategies to optimize restorative sleep in the heat; and 6. neurological control of metabolic rate and body heat production has been demonstrated by specially trained individuals and can be generalized with assistive technologies/real time biofeedback Karl E.
