Cardiovascular magnetic resonance assessment of acute cardiovascular effects of voluntary apnoea in elite divers

Abstract Background Prolonged breath holding results in hypoxemia and hypercapnia. Compensatory mechanisms help maintain adequate oxygen supply to hypoxia sensitive organs, but burden the cardiovascular system. The aim was to investigate human compensatory mechanisms and their effects on the cardiov...
