Smartphone-Enabled Heart Rate Variability and Acute Mountain Sickness [PDF]
, 2017 INTRODUCTION: The autonomic system and sympathetic activation appears integral in the pathogenesis of acute mountain sickness (AMS) at high altitude (HA), yet a link between heart rate variability (HRV) and AMS has not been convincingly shown.
