Adjusting attitudes about altitude: novel approaches to promote human performance in high-altitude
Altmetrics
Abstract
Military personnel frequently operate in environmental extremes, such as high-altitude, without adequate time for acclimatization. Altitude mediated decrements in human physiological function jeopardize mission success and personal safety. The following dissertation describes three experiments directed at the identification of non-traditional, military specific approaches to promote human functional performance in high-altitude. The specific aims of the following experiments were: 1) to compare the difference in time trial performance in normoxia and hypoxia following oral administration of ...
