The impact of venous occlusion per se on forearm muscle blood flow: implications for the near-infrared spectroscopy venous occlusion technique

The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of venous occlusion per se on forearm muscle blood flow, as determined by the near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) venous occlusion technique (NIRS-VOT). NIRS data were obtained from the flexor …

Asymmetry of quadriceps muscle oxygenation during elite short-track speed skating

PURPOSE: It has been suggested that, because of the low sitting position in short-track speed skating, muscle blood flow is restricted, leading to decreases in tissue oxygenation. Therefore, wearable wireless-enabled near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) …
