Ultralight Aviation and Hypoxia: Pilot Perspec- tives on Cerebral Oximetry Monitorization
| Summary: | The current study features collected information from a heterogeneous group of pilots regarding their prior experiences of hypoxia. The study focuses on whether the group of assembled pilots has received hypoxia training and on their perceptions of the trainings relevancy. Also analyzed is whether the installation of a physiological monitoring system would be considered by pilots as being relevant to improving flight safety. A monitoring system for brain oximetry was tested in light aviation pilots during real flight conditions |
