Effect of gender on P-wave dispersion in asymptomatic populations (2013)
Journal Article
Faulkner, A., & Garrett, A. (2013). Effect of gender on P-wave dispersion in asymptomatic populations. International sportmed journal for FIMS ISMJ, 14(4), 236-244

Background: Exercise testing is a diagnostic tool for evaluating the induction of stress-induced paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF). Resting P-wave dispersion has been suggested to be greater in males versus females but if used by clinicians, gende...

Field based reliability and validity of the Bioharness multivariable monitoring device (2012)
Journal Article
Johnstone, J. A., Ford, P. A., Hughes, G., Watson, T., Mitchell, A. C., & Garrett, A. T. (2012). Field based reliability and validity of the Bioharness multivariable monitoring device. Journal of Sports Science and Medicine, 11(4), 643 - 652

The Bioharness™ device is designed for monitoring physiological variables in free-living situations but has only been proven to be reliable and valid in a laboratory environment. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the reliability and validity o... Read More about Field based reliability and validity of the Bioharness multivariable monitoring device.

Bioharness™ multivariable monitoring device. Part II: Reliability (2012)
Journal Article
Garrett, A. (2012). Bioharness™ multivariable monitoring device. Part II: Reliability. Journal of sports science & medicine, 11(3), 409 - 417

The BioharnessTM monitoring system may provide physiological information on human performance but the reliability of this data is fundamental for confidence in the equipment being used. The objective of this study was to assess the reliability of eac... Read More about Bioharness™ multivariable monitoring device. Part II: Reliability.

Bioharness™ multivariable monitoring device. Part I: Validity (2012)
Journal Article
Johnstone, J. A., Ford, P. A., Hughes, G., Watson, T., & Garrett, A. T. (2012). Bioharness™ multivariable monitoring device. Part I: Validity. Journal of sports science & medicine, 11(3), 400 - 408

The BioharnessTM monitoring system may provide physiological information on human performance but there is limited information on its validity. The objective of this study was to assess the validity of all 5 BioharnessTM variables using a laboratory... Read More about Bioharness™ multivariable monitoring device. Part I: Validity.

Induction and decay of short-term heat acclimation in moderately and highly trained athletes (2011)
Journal Article
Garrett, A. T., Rehrer, N. J., & Patterson, M. J. (2011). Induction and decay of short-term heat acclimation in moderately and highly trained athletes. Sports medicine, 41(9), 757-771. https://doi.org/10.2165/11587320-000000000-00000

A rethinking of current heat-acclimation strategies is required as most research and advice for improving physiological strain in the heat includes maintaining hydration using long-term acclimation protocols (>10 days). Furthermore, these strategies... Read More about Induction and decay of short-term heat acclimation in moderately and highly trained athletes.

Effectiveness of short-term heat acclimation for highly trained athletes (2011)
Journal Article
Garrett, A. T., Creasy, R., Rehrer, N. J., Patterson, M. J., & Cotter, J. D. (2012). Effectiveness of short-term heat acclimation for highly trained athletes. European journal of applied physiology, 112(5), 1827-1837. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00421-011-2153-3

Effectiveness of short-term acclimation has generally been undertaken using untrained and moderatelytrained participants. The purpose of this study was to determine the impact of short-term (5-day) heat acclimation on highly trained athletes. Eight m...

Induction and decay of short-term heat acclimation (2009)
Journal Article
Cotter, J. D., Patterson, M. J., Rehrer, N. G., Goosens, N. G., & Garrett, A. T. (2009). Induction and decay of short-term heat acclimation. European journal of applied physiology, 107(6), 659-670. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00421-009-1182-7

The purpose of this work was to investigate adaptation and decay from short-term (5-day) heat acclimation (STHA). Ten moderately trained males (mean ± SD age 28 ± 7 years; body mass 74.6 ± 4.4 kg; _VO2peak 4.26 ± 0.37 l min-1) underwent heat acclimat...
