Mountain Dwellers' sleep studied: does coming down help breathing?

NCT ID NCT06489717

Summary

This study observed how moving from high altitude (3200m) to low altitude (760m) affects sleep breathing in people with high-altitude pulmonary hypertension who permanently live above 2500m. Researchers measured oxygen levels and breathing patterns during sleep at both altitudes in 24 participants. The goal was to understand how altitude changes impact breathing during sleep in this specific population.
