Hypoxic Hypoxia and Brain Function in Military Aviation: Basic Physiology and Applied Perspectives
Acute hypobaric hypoxia (HH) is a major physiological threat during high-altitude flight and operations. In military aviation, although hypoxia-related fatalities are rare, incidences are common and are likely underreported. Hypoxia is a reduction in oxygen availability, which can impair brain funct...
