Background summary
Hypoxia and hyperglycaemia are important factors in the development of
pulmonary diseases. The exact mechanism of the huamn reaction to hypoxia is
unclear. It is clear however that metabolic factors are of great importance.
Study objective
In this study we want to investigate the effects of sustained hyperglycaemia
and hypoxia on the hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction and hypoxic ventilatory
response
Study design
Double blinded randomized trial, the subjects will subjected to the protocol
twice (normoglycaemia and hyperglycaemia)
Intervention
hypoxia
hyperglycaemia
Study burden and risks
headache during hypoxia somethimes occurs, which is treated with paracetamol
a bruise may occur on the spot of the iv
hyperglycaemia is tolerated well and has no side effects after such a short
period
