Observational study of neural respiratory drive during sleep at high altitude. High Alt Med …

The medical risks of travel and stay at high altitude are well known. Many more people travel
for recreation to lower but still significant altitudes. To investigate the quality of sleep and …

To determine whether nocturnal periodic breathing (PB) at altitude is due primarily to
unstable control of ventilation or the inability to maintain stable sleep states, we performed …

Abstract Study Objectives: It has been hypothesized that arousals after apnea and hypopnea
events in patients with obstructive sleep apnea are triggered when neural respiratory drive …
