P 91 Changes of cerebral perfusion and cerebral pressure induced by rapid altitude changes of 1000m in an alpine region? – results of a neurosonographic study of volume flow rate and optic sheath diameter

As the clinical implications of altitude sickness are well known, the etiology of this potential life threatening disease is far from understood completely. We studied noninvasively by means of Neurosonography the effects of a rapid change of altitude in the alpine region on the cerebral volume flow and intracranial pressure.
