Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the effectiveness of external chest compressions (ECCs) during simulated lunar and Martian conditions to see if there are gender differences in performance.
- During experiments, male volunteers consistently delivered deeper compressions than female volunteers, particularly in simulated microgravity, where women were unable to meet the required compression depth.
- Despite women showing a higher heart rate during the exercises, both genders rated their exertion similarly, highlighting a gender performance gap in ECC effectiveness under microgravity conditions.
