Sleep-Assessment in Patients Between High Altitude HA vs. Sea Level LA in Patients With Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension PAH

31 augusti 2026 uppdaterad av: Silvia Ulrich Somaini

Effect of a One-week Descent From 2850m to Sea Level and Re-ascent in Patients With Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension and Healthy Controls Permanently Living > 2600m on Pulmonary Hemodynamics, Exercise Capacity, Blood Oxygenation, Sleep Disordered Breathing and Further Outcomes

To study the effect of relocation from high altitude (Quito Ecuador: 2850m) to sea level on sleeping parameters by polygraphy in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension PAH, who live permanently >2600m.
