EIAH

exercise-induced arterial hypoxia(English)

  • a complex phenomenon in which arterial blood gas homeostasis is challenged by either diffusion limitation, shunting of pulmonary arterial blood, mismatching of ventilation to pulmonary perfusion and/or hypoventilation, as largely characterized in healthy adults or elite athletes. However, patients with HFpEF could be characterized as having EIAH, owing to a hypoventilatory response exercise as well as probable mismatching
