Summary

In this investigation the researchers explore whether different types of breathing procedures can improve the peripheral oxygen saturation to reduce the risk of becoming a acute mountain sickness or a high altitude pulmonary edema.

Conditions

  • Acute Mountain Sickness

Interventions

OTHER

Breathing procedure 1

inhalation during one step, exhalation during the next step

OTHER

Breathing procedure 2

inhalation and exhalation during one step
