Theoretical analysis of acceleration-induced central nervous system ischemia

The mechanism responsible for the +G/sub z/-induced loss of consciousness (G-LOC) experienced by fighter pilots is investigated. The nature of a G-LOC episode is described for cases of rapid onset. Evidence suggests that the G-LOC mechanism might be closely related to the mechanism for sleep. A theory of G-LOC that treats it as a protective physiological mechanism is proposed.<<ETX>>
