Abstract:
The functional state of the vestibular system of the bed rested man is characterized by a decrease of the nystagmic parameters, increase of autonomic reactions and elongation of illusory sensations. This may reduce the static and kinetic stability of man to acceleration. The bed rest induced vestibular changes can be attributed to the functional changes in higher compartments of the central nervous system. The influence of an altered atmosphere on the vestibular function is insignificant.
