AI Article Synopsis
- Human performance optimization for tactical personnel hinges on effective monitoring of biological responses and recovery, with heart rate variability (HRV) emerging as a valuable tool for this purpose.
- HRV provides a non-invasive way to assess a performer's readiness and recovery status, and when used alongside other data, it offers practical insights for enhancing operational performance.
- The review highlights HRV's role in understanding the autonomic nervous system's efficiency in tactical settings, considering various factors such as job demands and cognitive-physical interactions, while offering recommendations for its application in training and recovery.
Article Abstract
Human performance optimization of tactical personnel requires accurate, meticulous, and effective monitoring of biological adaptations and systemic recovery. Due to an increased understanding of its importance and the commercial availability of assessment tools, the use of heart rate variability (HRV) to address this need is becoming more common in the tactical community. Measuring HRV is a non-invasive, practical method for objectively assessing a performer's readiness, workload, and recovery status; when combined with additional data sources and practitioner input, it provides an affordable and scalable solution for gaining actionable information to support the facilitation and maintenance of operational performance. This narrative review discusses the non-clinical use of HRV for assessing, monitoring, and interpreting autonomic nervous system resource availability, modulation, effectiveness, and efficiency in tactical populations. Broadly, HRV metrics represent a complex series of interactions resulting from internal and external stimuli; therefore, a general overview of HRV applications in tactical personnel is discussed, including the influence of occupational specific demands, interactions between cognitive and physical domains, and recommendations on implementing HRV for training and recovery insights into critical health and performance outcomes.

Reworking Nursing Expertise: Directors of Nursing's Tactics to (Re)Connect Knowledge and Power in Hospital Governance.
Nurs Inq

Research Group for Person-Centeredness in an Ageing Society, Fontys University of Applied Sciences, Eindhoven, The Netherlands.
Shared governance in hospitals promotes the inclusion of nurses' expertise, knowledge and skills in organisational processes, and nurses increasingly fulfil positions in organisational hierarchies. However, incorporating nursing expertise in strategic governance structures might be complicated, as these structures are primarily linked to managerial and biomedical expertise. Drawing on a Foucauldian perspective on knowledge and power, intertwined and embedded in everyday (inter)actions, we study how newly appointed directors of nursing challenge these dominant 'modes of knowing'.

Background: Swimming-induced pulmonary edema (SIPE), also called immersion pulmonary edema, is a form of exertional pulmonary edema associated with swimming and/or water immersion without aspiration. Most case reports on SIPE feature young, healthy patients who were scuba-diving, surface swimming, snorkeling, or breath-hold diving before experiencing symptoms of dyspnea, chest pain/tightness, cough, and hemoptysis. The incidence of SIPE is thought to be between 0.
