Recent research has suggested that core temperature decreases faster when cold stress is preceded by provocative motion. This study investigated the rate of development of hypothermia during motion sickness. Fourteen subjects were simultaneously exposed to cold stress (5°C, 30%RH, 7.2 km/hr wind) and vestibular Coriolis cross-coupled stimulation. Rectal and skin temperature, heat flow, oxygen uptake, and skin blood flow were monitored throughout the trials. Core temperature decreased significantly more during Coriolis stimulation in the cold (p < 0.01) when compared to the controls. There were no significant differences in skin temperature, oxygen uptake or skin blood flow. During simultaneous Coriolis stimulation and cold stress, dry heat loss was significantly higher between 0--10 min (p < 0.05). Our results suggest motion sickness increases body core cooling during cold exposure, and that an increase of dry and possibly evaporative heat loss could explain the difference in core cooling between motion sick and non-motion sick individuals.
