title: [Maximum exercise testing during hypobaria and normoxia (author's transl)].
abstract: The effects of high altitude (3000 m, low-pressure chamber) on maximum exercise and maximum oxygen uptake were studied in four normal subjects. In order to separate the effects of hypobaria and of hypoxia, exercise testing was performed under normoxic, hypobaric conditions and compared with the results under normoxic, normobaric conditions. There was no significant difference in performance, nor in the effects of exercise on the measured cardiovascular parameters.
