    Senior Airman Shanna Thomas, 779th Aerospace Medicine Squadron inside observer, helps a student who has passed the “time of useful consciousness,” make the proper corrections to stop hypoxia, Nov. 2, 2011, at Joint Base Andrews, Md. “The time of useful consciousness” is the period of time from the interruption of the oxygen supply or exposure to an oxygen-poor environment to the time when useful function is lost, and the individual is no longer capable of taking proper corrective and protective action. If a student cannot perform the corrective action, the student fails the hypobaric chamber test.
