Physiological strain, RPE, and perceived thermal stress during auto extrication simulations by experienced urban firefighters

This study examined the physiological response of 22 participants (three groups of six, one group of four) during four auto extrication simulations (AES) wearing full personal protective equipment. Heart rate (HR) and core temperature (C T) were monitored continuously from baseline thoughout the AES...
