Combined effects of hypoxia and mental fatigue on physical performance
24 July 2017
The study assesses the effect of induced cognitive fatigue on human performance at high altitude. Participants will be evaluated under hypoxic conditions (reduced oxygen, equivalent to 4000m altitude) during exercise at high physical workloads, to determine the relationship between body hypoxia and mental fatigue on prolonged physical performance.
