Article Synopsis
- Hypoxia leads to increased postural sway, but the specific sensorimotor factors affecting balance are not well understood.
- The study aimed to investigate how normobaric hypoxia impacts cutaneous reflexes from the sural nerve in a standing position.
- Results showed that cutaneous reflex area and duration did not significantly change during up to 4 hours of normobaric hypoxia compared to normal oxygen levels, indicating that these reflexes are resilient to hypoxic conditions.
