🌟 New from Hunt et al... mild hypohydration raised HR response to progressive LBNP, with no change in BP, SV or CO. Females had lower orthostatic tolerance, but sex and hydration effects were independent. Curious? Technavance has an LBNP chamber for you

🎉 Exciting delivery! Dr. @K_Bunsawat at the @UIowaHSHP just received her Technavance Knee Extension Ergometer! She'll be using it to investigate the vascular and autonomic mechanisms underlying exercise intolerance in aging and age-related diseases, including heart failure!💪🫀
🌟 This is what we strive for! We are grateful for the feedback from Dr. @Elliott_AD at @UniofAdelaide. Supporting research, all around the world. Read more reviews at the link below!

🧲 New blog post! A researcher asked: "Can you make your LBNP chamber MRI-compatible?" The story: the first design, the learning curve, and the elegant solution now used across North America and Europe.
Stay tuned — a new capability is coming soon! 👀

💡New research! Using progressive LBNP, Hess et al. found no difference in orthostatic tolerance among recreationally active, hybrid-, and endurance-trained people. More studies on training adaptations needed? A precise Technavance LBNP chamber can help!

🎉 A Technavance Baro Chamber has landed at @UNC! Dr. Virginie Papadopoulou and her ENHANCE Lab will use it to study decompression bubble physiology — with far-reaching implications for diving safety and human performance. Thrilled to support such impactful work! 🤿🫧
🌍 Curious where Technavance instruments are making an impact? Check out the interactive map on our website to see where our LBNP chambers, Baro Chambers, and Ergometers are installed around the world — and the research being done with them!

🩸 During hemorrhage, when compensatory mechanisms fail cerebral blood flow is compromised and syncope prevails 🧠 Central question – when do these mechanisms fail ❓ Hirasawa et al. demonstrate a breakdown in cerebral circulatory regulation at 75% LBNP...

🩸🔬 Best way to study hemorrhage? Convertino et al. highlight LBNP as a safe, non-invasive tool with the potential to improve clinical outcomes — and Technavance LBNP chambers are already being used to validate next-gen medical devices and sensors!

🩸🧠 Frequency matters. O² matters. Using oscillatory LBNP, @Shahrza22488635 et al. show that severe hypoxia impairs dCA at 0.05 Hz, while its hysteresis-like pattern remains unaffected. Distinct mechanisms at work! Our LBNP chamber is up to the task!

🚀 Technavance just delivered another MRI-compatible LBNP chamber to @KU_Leuven in Belgium! This will enable further research into mechanisms involved in congenial heart disease. Excited to see those publications! 🫀🔬
🆕 Using OLBNP, @mahmoudrezatagh et al. found isocapnic hyperthermia impairs dynamic CA while preserving directional sensitivity at lower frequencies.
🧠 Technavance's automated pressure control LBNP chambers are built for oscillatory protocols!

🚀 Looking to the future! Tripoli et al. integrated 6° head-down tilt with a Technavance LBNP 1100 to simulate microgravity. Graded LBNP drove decreases in 🧠 cerebral blood velocity, with sex differences in systemic 🫀 cardiovascular responses.

🎙️The Technavance Triple-Threat? We have to credit Andy Simonson for that one...
Our President & Co-Founder, Dr. Michelle Harrison, joined Electra-Med Corporation's podcast, The Electra-Med Edge, to discuss innovation, engineering for extreme environments, and Technavance's...
mission to 'bridge the gap.' Tune in to learn how we strive to support human physiology research.
Special shout-out to Dr. @adartiles (@TAMU_BHP)for trusting us with some difficult engineering challenges!
