The Effects of Normobaric Hypoxia on Blood Glucose Levels.

Withdrawn

• Conditions: Glucose

• Registration Number: NCT01302782
• Lead Sponsor: Mike O'Callaghan Military Hospital

Brief Summary

The purpose of this research study is to observe whether there is a change in blood glucose levels in response to a 2 hour oral glucose tolerance tests (OGTT) during acute normobaric hypoxia (short term low oxygen levels at normal ambient air pressure).

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Change in glucose levels at altitude	1 year	Subjects will be placed on a Reduced Oxygen Breathing Device (ROBD2) to simulate 3 different altitudes at three separate and distinct time periods (ground, 8,000 feet and 12,000 feet) then obtain c-peptide and 2-hour OGTT to determine blood glucose changes during acute normobaric hypoxia.
