Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

Hypoxia Exposure

Arm Description

Men and women will be exposed to isocapnic hypoxia. Participants will wear a mask and systemic oxygen levels will be titrated to attain hypoxemia as assessed by pulse oximetry.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Forearm Blood Flow
Measured with venous occlusion plethysmography (mL/dL/min)
