Tasota, MSN, Jigme M. Sethi, MD, Augustine M.K. Choi, MD, Stefan W. Ryter, PhD, Mark H.

2 Figure 1 Scheme of normoxic (□) and hypoxic (■) exposures for the habituation trial (60minutes room air), intermittent hypoxia (IH) session (6 hypoxic [FIO2 approximately 0.135] exposures for 10minutes each), and continuous hypoxia (CH) session (one 60-minute hypoxic [FIO2 approximately 0.135] exposure). Arrows indicate data collection periods during last 5minutes of normoxia prior to the day's initial hypoxia exposure, as well as during the last 5minutes of daily hypoxia exposure.

3 Figure 2 SpO2: Mean of pre-exposure and last 5minutes of exposure by hypoxia profile and day (IH indicates intermittent hypoxia; CH, continuous hypoxia). Values are means ± SE.
