  • Title: Evaluation of cardiac rhythm disturbances during extravehicular activity.
    Author: Rossum AC, Wood ML, Bishop SL, Deblock H, Charles JB.
    Journal: Am J Cardiol; 1997 Apr 15; 79(8):1153-5. PubMed ID: 9114789.
    Abstract:
    This study represents the first systematic evaluation of dysrhythmias before, during, and after spaceflight including extravehicular activity (EVA). The data, based on 7 Shuttle crew members, revealed a nonsignificant decrease in ventricular and supraventricular ectopy during EVA, suggesting that the incidence of dysrhythmias is no greater during EVA than with any other phase of a mission or preflight.
