Normoxic and hypoxic (10% O2) data for the 10 subjects
Normoxia | Hypoxia | |
---|---|---|
Deoxy-Mb (% of cuff) | 9 ± 1 | 13 ± 3* |
Pio2(mmHg) | 34 ± 6 | 23 ± 6* |
SaO2 (%) | 96 ± 1 | 76 ± 3* |
PaO2 (mmHg) | 103 ± 2 | 46 ± 3* |
Heart rate (beats min−1) | 62 ± 3 | 84 ± 4* |
Deoxy-Mb,1H NMRS deoxygenated myoglobin signal expressed as a percentage of that in cuff ischaemia; PiO2, calculated intracellular PO2; SaO2, arterial O2 saturation; PaO2, calculated arterial PO2.
Significantly different from normoxic values, P≤ 0.05.
