Clinical trials: Cardiopulmonary Disease
High Altitude Effects
Measurement of Cardiopulmonary Variables After Acute Exposure to High Altitude
As altitude increases, the availability of oxygen in the air decreases, and just to compensate for this lack, the body increases cardiac and respiratory work and changes blood pressure.
