Exposition to head to foot accelerations (+Gz) on human carrying centrifuge are associated with increase in heart rate (HR). Sometimes, especially with extremely high HR values it is almost impossible to distinguish between fast sinus rhythm and supraventricular tachycardia which is essential for th...
