Previous studies indicate that individuals at high altitudes have a lower pain threshold than those living sea level. This study evaluates the differences in perception among young people an altitude of 3800 m and after acute exposure to severe hypoxic environment more 5100 m. Fourteen (BMI 22.6 ± 1.2 age 23.3 1.9 years) residing city Puno (3825 m) participated ascent Populated Center La Rinconada (>5100 m). The unilateral ischemia provocation test was used, applying pressure with manual...
Background: Chronic exposure to severe hypoxia causes an increase in hematocrit (Hct) and hemoglobin concentration ([Hb]), which can lead Excessive Erythrocytosis (EE), could impact physical performance. This work aims determine the differences six-minute walking test (6MWT) outputs between EE healthy subjects residing at more than 5000 meters. Methods: A prospective, cross-sectional study was performed on 71 men (36 25 suffering EE) living La Rinconada, Peru (5100 m). Basal levels of [Hb]...

Objetivo: describir la función cardiovascular y determinar las alteraciones cardiacas en pacientes con sin eritrocitosis excesiva (EE). Materiales métodos: estudio de tipo prospectivo, transversal analítico. La muestra fue 61 residentes del Centro Poblado Rinconada, localizado Puno – Perú, ubicado a 5 200 m.s.n.m. Se utilizó una ficha recolección datos, se aplicó el score mal montaña crónico Qinghai un cardiólogo experimentado realizo ecocardiografías. Resultados: promedio edad 44 ± 7 años...
