Abstract

A study is conducted to investigate the acute effects of sleeping in a normobaric hypoxic tent upon markers of sleep physiology and quality, compared with sleep in a normal ambient environment and sleep in a normobaric normoxic tent. It is reported that sleep in a normobaric hypoxic tent at a simulated altitude of 2500 m might affect sleep parameters in some individuals.
