Integrated Respiratory and Cardiovascular Responses to Hypoxia features two hours of information, ideas, and insights on the relationship between selected factors, exercise, and hypoxia. The DVD examines the carotid chemoreceptor and its influencers and their implications for health and disease. The DVD also discusses how acute hypoxia has no effect on neuromuscular properties or cortical voluntary activation at rest. In addition, the DVD details why myofiber-expressed VEGF is important in acutely regulating blood flow and exercise capacity.
