Clinical Trial: Training in Hypoxia to Prevent Acute Mountain Sickness

Study Status: Completed
Recruit Status: Unknown status
Study Type: Interventional




Official Title: Prevention of Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS) by Intermittent Hypoxic Training

Brief Summary: Some studies suggest that high-altitude related illnesses - like acute mountain sickness - could be prevented by acclimatisation, reached at low altitude using training in simulated altitude. The purpose of this study is to determine whether training in hypoxia is suitable to prevent acute mountain sickness.
