How short-term low oxygen exposure affects the right side of the heart in healthy adults
We test whether short-term reduced oxygen (simulated 2,500 m and 4,000 m) changes right ventricular function in healthy adults at rest and during light exercise.
-
Right-heart response to short-term low oxygen in people with past HAPE
This trial tests whether brief exposure to simulated high altitude (low oxygen) changes right-heart function in adults who previously had high-altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE).
-
How altitude affects outcomes for children with acute respiratory distress
This project will see if higher altitude and differences in hospital critical-care resources change outcomes for children (1 month–18 years) with PARDS who need invasive mechanical ventilation.
