Study Summary

The purpose of this research is to see if people who have had a collapsed lung that has been re-expanded can be safely taken to an elevation that a person might experience while in a commercial airplane without having their lung partially collapse again, or have any symptoms such as feeling short of breath or having oxygen levels in the blood decrease while at the simulated altitude. The investigators hypothesize that subjects who have had a collapsed lung that has been re-expanded will not have any adverse symptoms or signs while subjected to a simulated altitude of 8400 feet (565mm Hg) or 12650 ft (471mm Hg).

Primary Outcome

Will document pneumothorax size before simulated altitude, and size after being at simulated altitude for two hours

Interventions

  • OTHER hypobaric chamber
