Abstract: | Altitude adaptation was measured at sea level and high altitudes in sea level adapted and high altitude adapted natives. Tests of work capacity as measured by O2 consumption, pulse rate, and ventilation rate are reported. It is noted that comparing our results with those of other investigators is difficult due to variations in terminology and procedure. This suggests the necessity of more precise definitions in studies of the physical activity of high altitude natives. |
