The Effect of Taser on Cardiac, Respiratory and Metabolic Physiology in Human Subjects

This project will continue studying Taser use in humans to determine if exposure to the electrical energy of these devices results in any changes in cardiac, respiratory and metabolic physiology in human subjects. In addition, it will study Taser use in association with physical exertion as well as under stress associated with pursuit and struggle that commonly occurs in the field setting. The goal of this study is to assess the safety of Taser by itself and in combination with physical exertion and physiologic stress.
