Effects of Expiratory Pressure on Arterial Oxygenation During Hypoxia

NCT01260428 · Status: UNKNOWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 20

Last updated 2012-02-28

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Altitude tolerance correlates with the level of oxygenation achieved. The aim of the present study is to investigate whether increased expiratory pressure within the thorax is able to improve oxygenation during hypoxic hypoxia.
