Sponsor

Universidad Rey Juan Carlos

Enrollment

60 participants

Start Date

Nov 1, 2024

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Pain Hypoxemia Hypercapnia Apneas

Summary

The aim of this randomized controlled study is to explore the hypoalgesic response of a 6 minutes of intermittent walking apneas training session at low lung volume in healthy subjects; also, as secondary objectives, to analyze the cardiovascular and respiratory response produced during the intervention.

Eligibility

Min Age: 18 YearsMax Age: 65 Years

Plain Language Summary

Interventions

OTHERWalking apnea at Low Lung Volume

Walking apnea at low Lung Volume Participants walk at 6 km/h (10% slope) on treadmill for 6 minutes. Participants in the experimental group will perform intermittent apneas at high lung volume with a density of 5 seconds, followed by a normal breath of 5 seconds until completing the 6 minutes)

OTHERWalking at normal breathing

Participants walk at 6 km/h (10% slope) on treadmill for 6 minutes. Participants in the control group will remain breathing normally for these 6 minutes.
