Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Core temperature | One day | This is an experitmetal study. Subjects receive oxygen or placebo-air during one night in random order. Outcome measure, i.e.core temperatue is measured continuously during this night with ongoing treatment of oxygen or placebo-air |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Sleep stages, apnea-hypopnea index | One day | This is an experitmetal study. Subjects receive oxygen or placebo-air during one night in random order. Outcome measure, i.e.the amount of differernt sleep stages, total sleep time and apnea-hypopnea index is measured during this night with ongoing treatment of oxygen or placebo-air |
