Abstract:Acute exposure to hypoxia at attitude has neurologic effects. Some subjects develop severe neurologic symptoms, including Parkinsonism, when hypoxic at high altitude as part of an Acute Mountain Sickness syndrome. Digital health technologies can provide continuous monitoring and objective, real-world measures of movement disorders, but only limited validation data of wearable sensors is available in the high-altitude setting. This equipment validation and feasibility study assessed smartphone microphone and ac… Show more
