Objective: This study investigated the effect of hyobaric hypoxia on cognitive function. Methods: We recorded the auditory brain-stem response (ABR) and auditory-evoked event-related potentials (ERP) in 7 male subjects during a rapid ascent to a simulated 4500 m altitude from their acclimatized altitude of 6 10 in. The amplitude and latency of each component of ABR and of ERP were assessed. Results: Compared with the values at 610 m, at 4500 in the latencies of both waves I and V of ABR significantly increased, with no change in I-V interpeak latency; and the amplitude of wave I decreased, with no change in the amplitude of wave V. The increase in altitude affected neither the amplitude nor the latency of N100. The P300 latency was prolonged significantly after exposure to hypobaric-hypoxic conditions for 2 h with no significant change in amplitude. At 4500 m, the P300 latency returned to the baseline value after oxygen was inhaled. Conclusions: Our results suggest it is possible to boost cognitive processing by supplying oxygen even when auditory Stimulus intensity decreases under hypobaric and hypoxic conditions, and that P300 latency is affected by hypoxic more than hypobaric conditions. Significance: This study demonstrated that each component of ABR and the latency of both N100 and P300 are important to record when the effects of hypobaric hypoxia on cognitive function are investigated.
