TY - JOUR TI - The Effects of Therapeutic Intermittent Hypoxia Implementation on Complete Blood Count Parameters: An Experimental Animal Model AB - Objective: Intermittent hypoxia (IH) implementation is a method performed by intermittently decreasing oxygen concentration in inhaled air at specific rate. This method varies between studies in terms of its application. This study aims to examine the changes in Complete Blood Count (CBC) parameters caused by IH implementation at therapeutic dose ranges with a single model. Methods: Ten Sprague Dawley type adult male rats were divided into two groups. In the study group, FiO2 level of inhaled air, was reduced to 10% in hypoxic cycle. 5 minutes normoxia-hypoxia cycle was used in each 30 minutes experiment period for study group. Control group remained in normoxic air for 30 minutes. 1 cc of blood was taken from mandibular vein from all rats at the end of 6th day. CBC analyzes were performed and differences between two groups were investigated. Results: Significant differences were detected in some CBC parameters between the two groups. It was determined that significant increase in MONO (p AU - kılıç, talha AU - Yıldız Ozer, Aysel AU - Sengor, Mustafa AU - Kılıç, Aysu AU - Ustunova, Savas AU - Daşkaya, Hayrettin DO - 10.33808/clinexphealthsci.1018541 PY - 2022 JO - Clinical and Experimental Health Sciences VL - 12 IS - 3 SN - 2459-1459 SP - 746 EP - 752 DB - TRDizin UR - http://search/yayin/detay/1127966 ER -
