متن کاملNasal mucociliary transport is impaired at altitude.
There have been a number of anecdotal reports of rhinitis and nasal obstruction occurring at altitude. To quantify these reports, we investigated nasal obstruction and mucociliary transport in a group of healthy volunteers trekking to Mount Everest Base Camp, Nepal, altitude 5,300 m. Nasal obstruction was estimated by subjective scoring and mucociliary transport was determined by the saccharin ...
متن کاملNasal airflow resistance at simulated altitude.
This issue includes an important paper by BARRY et al. [1] in which the changes in nasal peak inspiratory flow (NPIF), and oral peak inspiratory flow (OPIF), during acclimatized exposure to low barometric pressure (equivalent to a simulated altitude of 8000 m, about the height of Mount Everest) of subjects in a hypobaric chamber were analysed. The changes were presumably due to hypoxia and its ...
متن کاملCerebral Venous Sinus Thrombosis Masquerading as High Altitude Cerebral Edema at Extreme Altitude
Introduction: Extreme altitude travel has gained popularity globally for adventurous, scientific, and military endeavors. Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) at extreme altitude is a rare, covert, and emergent condition requiring immediate intervention. Case Presentation: A case of CVST masqueraded as high altitude cerebral edema (HACE) at 6700 m/22000 ft i...
متن کاملAthletes at High Altitude
CONTEXT Athletes at different skill levels perform strenuous physical activity at high altitude for a variety of reasons. Multiple team and endurance events are held at high altitude and may place athletes at increased risk for developing acute high altitude illness (AHAI). Training at high altitude has been a routine part of preparation for some of the high level athletes for a long time. Ther...
