Values for $P_{{\mathrm{o}}_2}$, plasma haemoglobin and $S_{{\mathrm{o}}_2}$ levels at baseline, during acute hypoxia and following re‐oxygenation

	Baseline	Hypoxia	Re‐oxygenation
$P_{{\mathrm{o}}_2}$ (mmHg)	482.2 ± 11.8	67.6 ± 2.3****	475.6 ± 8.1††††
Plasma haemoglobin (g dL–1)	21.0 ± 0.4	24.2 ± 0.3****	20.7 ± 0.2††††
$S_{{\mathrm{o}}_2}$ (%)	100.0 ± 0.0	87.3 ± 0.7****	100.0 ± 0.0††††

Values are the mean ± SEM. One‐way ANOVA with Holm–Šidák correction was used for multiple comparisons.
