Abstract
Objective: Intermittent hypoxia (IH) implementation is a method performed by intermittently decreasing oxygen concentration in inhaled air at
specific rate. This method varies between studies in terms of its application. This study aims to examine the changes in Complete Blood Count
(CBC) parameters caused by IH implementation at therapeutic dose ranges with a single model.
Methods: Ten Sprague Dawley type adult male rats were divided into two groups. In the study group, FiO2
level of inhaled air, was reduced
to 10% in hypoxic cycle. 5 minutes normoxia-hypoxia cycle was used in each 30 minutes experiment period for study group. Control group
remained in normoxic air for 30 minutes. 1 cc of blood was taken from mandibular vein from all rats at the end of 6th day. CBC analyzes were
performed and differences between two groups were investigated.
Results: Significant differences were detected in some CBC parameters between the two groups. It was determined that significant increase in
MONO (p<0.001), MONO% (p<0.001), MCH (p=0.03), PLT (p=0.013) and PCT (p=0.007) parameters and significant decrease in MPV (p=0.02)
parameters, in favor of study group.
Conclusion: IH implementation was caused significant changes in MONO, MONO%, MCH, PCT, PLT and MPV parameters in the CBC analysis
of rats. Considering the study results, therapeutic IH implementation may thought to have important effects in terms of lung protection and
regeneration. Further research may focus on this point for precising and supporting of this study’ results.
