Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
The hemodynamic and pulmonary effects of acute high altitude exposure. Blood pressure, heart rate, exercise capacity, saturation, cardiac output, peak O2 uptake en ventilation will be monitored.	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
The association between desaturation and decrease in exercise capacity will be studied as a secondary objective.	—
