Memory and thinking at moderate altitude
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study examines how your brain's ability to remember tasks changes when exposed to moderate altitude with lower oxygen. Researchers want to understand this effect in healthy volunteers to advance knowledge about altitude physiology.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are in good overall health with no chronic heart, lung, blood, nerve, mental health, or metabolic conditions
- You have not had seizures, fainting episodes, or loss of consciousness in your medical history
- You do not take regular medications (birth control is okay)
- You have not experienced altitude sickness or spent time above 11,500 feet in the last 3 months
- You speak and understand French fluently
- You are not pregnant, breastfeeding, or experiencing high anxiety or depression

This trial looks at what happens to people with anxiety and depressive symptoms after going to high altitude with low oxygen. It may help researchers understand whether altitude affects these symptoms and how it might be managed.
This study tests how your heart’s right ventricle handles low oxygen (like at high altitude) in healthy adults. You will be exposed to a low-oxygen environment for a short time to see how your heart responds.
This study tests how your heart's right ventricle adapts when you breathe lower-oxygen air (like at high altitude). If you have well-controlled asthma, researchers want to see if your heart handles the challenge differently.
This study looks at how healthy people respond to exercise in low-oxygen conditions (like high altitude). It will help researchers understand the body’s normal reactions.
This study tests how your body handles working in heat when you are also at a simulated high altitude. The results could help understand physical limits and safety in jobs or sports.
This study looks at how the right side of the heart responds to low oxygen levels in people who have had high altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE) in the past. It will help researchers better understand right heart function.
