Ignite! Waterloo
The document discusses an unconference event, Ignite Waterloo, highlighting its format that prioritizes participant engagement over traditional speaker-led presentations. Various presentations from participants cover diverse topics, including climate change, Rubik's Cube solving methods, biking culture, high altitude medicine, and the impact of solar energy. The event emphasizes community building and innovation within a collaborative framework.

- 281.
- 282. Definitions ๏ High altitude: 4950 to 11500 feet (1500-3500 m) Increased ventilation, decreased exercise tolerance ๏ Very high altitude: 11500 to18050 feet (3500-5500 m) PaO2 60mm Hg, SaO2 90% ๏ Extreme altitude: 18050 feet ( 5500 m) Hypoxia, hypercarbia Cannot acclimate
- 283. High Altitude Illness ๏ Acute Mountain Sickness ๏ High Altitude Pulmonary Edema ๏ High Altitude Cerebral Edema
- 285. Acute Mountain Sickness ๏ Common with rapid ascent above 8000 feet (2400m) Can occur at lower altitudes 4000-6000 feet (1200 – 1800m) Incidence ~ 50% at 14000 feet (4300m) Onset 8-96 hours after reaching altitude ๏ Symptoms Headache Bitemporal of occipital, throbbing Worse with valsalva, bending over And 1 or more of: Anorexia/nausea/vomiting Sleep disturbance Fatigue Dizziness
- 286. High Altitude CerebralEdema ๏ Progression of AMS Lethargy Confusion, can progress to coma Ataxia Abnormal tandem gait, finger to nose diagnostic Life threatening ๏ Onset hours to days ๏ White matter edema on MRI ๏ Descent mandatory
- 287.
- 288. High Altitude Pulmonary Edema ๏ May occur alone or with AMS/HACE ๏ Dyspnea disproportionate to exertion, progressing to at rest Noncardiogenic pulmonary edema Exaggerated hypoxic vasoconstriction, capillary leak Diagnosis based on dyspnea unrelieved with rest May be progressive, fatal Descent mandatory
- 289. Diagnosis of HAPE ๏ Symptoms (=2) ๏ Signs (=2) Dyspnea at rest Crackles or wheezing Cough Cyanosis Decreased exercise Tachypnea tolerance Tachycardia Chest tightness/ congestion
- 290.
- 291. Why Does HAPEOccur? • Hypothesis 1: Pulmonary endothelium barrier fragility • Pulmonary endothelium barrier susceptible to: • Mechanical stress Stretching of the endothelium gaps passage of proteins and red blood cells • Inflammation Mediators release permeability gaps passage of proteins, red blood cells and inflammatory mediators • Questions: 1. Inflammation = 1st culprit? 2. High pressure alone enough to result in extra vascular leak?
- 292. Inflammation in HAPE? • Schoene et al., 1986, 1998 – Leukotrienes (marker of inflammation) very high in BAL in subjects acutely ill with HAPE • But inflammation present at the start or as a result of HAPE ? • Swenson et al., 2002 – RBC and proteins present in BAL in people at onset of HAPE – But no inflammatory markers present ๏ Inflammation not the causative factor
- 293. Hypoxic Pulmonary Vasoconstriction ๏ The Stress Failure Theory (West et Mathieu- Costello, 1998, 1999) Alveolar hypoxia Hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (uneven) capillary pressure (some capillaries) VA/Q heterogeneity Damage to capillary wall (stress failure) Exposed basement membrane EDEMA Inflammatory mediators
- 294. Circular break ofthe epithelium Full break of the blood-gas barrier Costello et al., 1992 Red cell moving out of the capillary lumen (c) into an alveolus (a)
- 295. Exercise Induced Hypoxemia EXERCISE +/- Alveolar hypoxia Hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (uneven) capillary pressure (some capillaries) VA/Q heterogeneity Damage to capillary wall (stress failure) EDEMA Exposed basement membrane Inflammatory mediators O2 HYPOXEMIA ! in about ½ endurance athletes (Powers et al., 1988)
- 296. Pulmonary Barrier Integrityin Athletes • Hopkins et al., 1997 – BAL in 6 athletes after a 7min exercise at maximal intensity – Post exercise: • RBC • Total protein • Albumin • Leukotrienes B4 • Hopkins et al., 1998 – 1h at 70% VO2max no signs of alteration Impairment of the integrity of blood-gas barrier only at extreme level of exercise in elite athletes
- 297. Why Does HAPEOccur? ๏ Hypothesis 2: Pertubation of alveolar fluid clearance Role of fluid in extravascular space depends on: – Its accumulation – Efficiency of its rate of clearance • Hypoxia Na,K-ATPase activity (Dada et al., 2003)
