PECULIARITIES OF AUDITORY ANALYSOR FUNCTION DURING PROLONGED EXPOSURE TO A CHANGED GAS ENVIRONMENT

Abstract

Studies were made of man's response to reduced barometric pressure (308 mm Hg) with normal pO2, to 2% CO2 air, and to a helium and oxygen atmosphere. Dynamic audiometry and studies of the time required for reverse auditory adaptation revealed no tendencies for deviation beyond the physiologic norm. Notably, the auditory analysor displays great tolerance to space cabin atmospheres.
