The team has already handed over and installed the device and is providing support at Naval Air Station (NAS) Patuxent River. When compared to the legacy Low Pressure Chamber trainer, the NHT concept focused on removing common hypoxia training injuries due to factors, such as decompression and b...
Battery of neurocognitive tests for in-chamber hypoxia education. Battery of cognitive tests is repeatedly delivered via touch-screen tablet Microsoft Surface (Windows 10), whilst the test results, vital signs and video of the persons performing the training are transmitted wirelessly to the Operator ...
The High Altitude experiments were experiments for German pilots to test human endurance at high altitudes both with and without oxygen. Victims were locked in a low-pressure chamber, to which the pressure was increased to 68 thousand feet to simulate a pilot’s decent. Sigmund Rascher was give...
This training session is conducted in a high altitude chamber while flying a Garmin G1000 and utilizing a Zodiac Aerospace Mask System. The experience of each pilot during Slow Onset Hypoxia training is unique. Therefore, pilots receive a video recording of their training session beginning at 10,...
Twenty-one subjects were submitted to an 8-h hypoxia exposure in a hypobaric chamber (4500 m, 589 hPa, 22掳C), both with and without a 5-cm H2O PEEP. Subjects carried out a visual search task consisting of detecting a target among distractors in normoxia, in acute and in prolonged ...
The 6-month-old mice were placed in a decompression chamber (model: DYC-DWI; Fenglei, China) and were exposed to a hypoxic environment (14.3% O2, equal to 3000-m high altitude, at the velocity of 5 m/s in 10 min) 4 h per day for 14 days or 28 days (n= 10–12 per group)....

METHOD: In a single-blinded counter-balanced design, 12 male pilots were exposed to HH while flying in a flight simulator that had been placed in a hypobaric chamber. Flight performance of the pilots, pilot's alertness level, Spo2i heart rate (HR), minute ventilation (VE),...
Fifteen participants were exposed to (1) no stressors, (2) heat load, (3) hypobaric hypoxia, and (4) combined heat load and hypobaric hypoxia. Hypobaric hypoxia (13,000ft) was achieved in a hypobaric chamber. Heat load was induced by increasing ambient temperature to ～28℃. Cognitive ...
