3. Therefore, ESF was determined in urine and serum of non anemic patients being exposed to acute hypoxia: 8 healthy volunteers and 8 patients who had a Ccreat below 48 ml/min were studied while in a hypobaric chamber for 4 subsequent periods of 10 h each (simulated maximal altitude 4000 m INA = 462 mm Hg).
4. Male Wister rats (n = 48) were exposed for 60 minutes to simulated high altitude at 3000 m or 5000 m above sea level in a hypobaric chamber. 30, 150 or 300 min following exposure, hearts were excised and perfused aerobically in the working heart model prior to 45 minutes of global ischemia at 30 °C and subsequent normothermic reperfusion.
