Study Summary

We are examining how morphine (a commonly used pain medication) will alter responses to simulated blood loss in humans. To simulate blood loss in our research laboratory, participants will complete a test with their lower body in a custom-designed vacuum chamber for a brief period of time.

Primary Outcome

Tolerance to a simulated hemorrhagic challenge will be assessed, for both the placebo and morphine limbs, by causing progressive central hypovolemia via lower-body negative pressure (LBNP). This progressive LBNP challenge will be performed until the onset of syncopal symptoms (defined as: profound bradycardia, a precipitous drop in arterial blood pressure and accompanying narrowing of pulse pressure, a sustained systolic blood pressure less than 80 mmHg, and/or subjective symptoms such as light-
