Study Summary

The objective of the present study is to determine whether intermittent hypoxia protects against ischemia-reperfusion injury in young and older healthy individuals. The investigators hypothesize that intermittent hypoxia will attenuate the reduction in flow-mediated dilation following ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Eligible Conditions
  • Intermittent Hypoxia

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
Change in endothelial-dependent vasodilation of the brachial artery will be assessed by flow-mediated dilation using an ultrasound machine

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Placebo Group
Group I: Intermittent hypoxiaExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
The intermittent hypoxia protocol will consist of three 4-minute hypoxic cycles (arterial oxygen saturation of 80%) interspersed with 4-minute normoxic cycles.
Group II: Intermittent normoxiaPlacebo Group1 Intervention
The intermittent normoxia protocol will consist of three 4-minute normoxic cycles (compressed air) interspersed with 4-minute normoxic cycles (room air).
