A tilt table test is used to evaluate the cause of unexplained fainting(syncope).... For a tilt table test, you begin by lying flat on a table. Straps are put around your body to hold you in place. After about 15 minutes of lying flat, the table is quickly tilted to raise your body to a head-up position-simulating a change in position from lying down to standing up. The table will then remain upright for up to 45 minutes, while your heart rate and blood pressure are monitored. This allows doctors to evaluate your body's cardiovascular response to the change in position. 5, record 2, English, - head%20up%20tilt%20test

Nous privilégions la technique du mât fixe, pour avoir moins de vibrations sur les basses vitesses, et une meilleure solidité contre des vents à partir de 100 km/h; les haubans ne serviront qu'à un maintien d'alignement de la génératrice. Ce genre de pose est moins coûteux qu'une pose classique (mât basculant). Tous nos entretiens se font par camion nacelle. 4, record 3, French, - m%C3%A2t%20fixe
