Abstract

The high pressure nervous syndrome (HPNS) is the term applied to the disturbances which appear when humans or animals are exposed to high pressure. The principal behavioral symptoms include locomotor activity, tremor and myoclonia. These symptoms have often been visually estimated previously, on free-moving animals, only by their onset pressure. In the present study, we report on the use of a new computerized device which enables a quantitative analysis of the behavioral symptoms of HPNS. These disturbances could be essentially dependent on the variations of pressure. This new device could also be profitably employed for other behavioral studies.

摘要

高压神经综合征（HPNS）是用于描述人类或动物暴露于高压时出现的紊乱症状的术语。主要行为症状包括运动活动、震颤和肌阵挛。以前，这些症状通常仅通过自由活动动物出现症状时的压力，对其进行视觉评估。在本研究中，我们报告了一种新型计算机设备的使用情况，该设备能够对高压神经综合征的行为症状进行定量分析。这些紊乱可能主要取决于压力的变化。这种新设备也可有效地用于其他行为研究。
