title: Protective effects of "cerebroactive drugs" in a model of acute hypoxia.
abstract: A systematic study of the hypobaric hypoxia method was carried out, using a wide range of vasodilators and metabolic modifiers. In general cerebral metabolic modifiers have a more effective antihypoxic action than cerebral vasodilators. After a discussion, the conclusion is that hypobaric hypoxia is useful as an initial screening procedure.
