About this study
The specific aim of this proposal is (1) to develop a human model of hypoxia in which cerebrovascular reactivity and cognitive function can be simultaneously measured and (2) develop pilot data in our laboratory on the relationship between cerebrovascular reactivity and cognitive function during three different hypoxic conditions with and without addition of inspired CO2 as a mechanism to maintain cerebral blood flow.
