Evaluation of thermal strain by physiological measurements (ISO 9886:1992)

This International Standard describes methods for measuring and interpreting the following physiological parameters: a) body core temperature; b) skin temperatures; c) heart rate; d) body mass loss. The choice of variables to be measured and techniques to be used is at the discretion of those responsible for the health of the employees. These persons will have to take into account not only the nature of the thermal conditions, but also the degree of acceptance of these techniques by the employees concerned.
