Short intermittent hypoxia augments systemic hemodynamics without altering cutaneous microcirculation; leaves open effects in disease or with repeated exposures.
Background: Hypoxic stimulus induces a homeostatic disruption to enhance physiological adaptation. Blood flow in the microcirculation plays an important role in maintaining healthy tissues by delivering oxygen. The cutaneous microcirculations responses to short systemic hypoxia and especially its duration are poorly understood; however the mechanisms of this phenomenon are at the microcirculatory level. The aim of our study was to determine the short systemic intermittent hypoxia's influence on blood flow in skin, local regulatory mechanism fluctuations and changes of systemic hemodynamic parameters in humans.
