Table 1.

Arterial blood gas values in unrestrained conscious rats after 3-wk exposure to either room air sham or CIH

Sham C P Level
pH (n = 6) 7.46±0.02 7.47±0.03 NS
PaCO2, Torr (n = 6) 40.80±0.73 37.92±1.58 0.002
HCO3−, mmol/l (n = 6) 28.37±1.43 27.03±2.23 NS
PaO2, Torr (n = 3) 89.17±2.81 92.83±1.98 NS

Values are means ± SE. CIH, cyclic intermittent hypoxia; NS, not significant; PaCO2 and PaO2 arterial Pco2 and Po2, respectively.
