NCT ID NCT07431580
First seen Feb 28, 2026 · Last updated May 07, 2026 · Updated 9 times
Summary
This study will test how the hearts of 18 adults with asthma respond to low oxygen levels like those at high altitudes. Participants will breathe special gas mixtures to simulate altitudes of 2,500 and 4,000 meters while at rest and during light exercise. The goal is to understand how the right side of the heart copes, so doctors can better support patients who want to enjoy mountain activities.
