What is hypoxia?

The problem of studying the mechanisms of adaptation of the body to a decrease in the oxygen content in the inhaled air is of particular importance among the topical issues of experimental medicine and physiology since in the course of life, the mammalian body constantly faces hypoxic effects that occur during continuous metabolic processes. Hypoxic factor has various changes in the body in intensity. In the process, which involves the mobilization of various physiological functional systems that determine the overall physical capacity and normal functioning of the body. Expanding the functional capabilities of the body, including previously unknown environmental conditions, mainly high-altitude areas and conditions of the middle mountains, is an important research area in physiology. Ensuring the resistance of service animals, ensuring the safety of the country, and the successful adaptation of farm animals for maximum profit at minimal cost is an urgent task, the solution of which will determine the optimal type of hypoxia and the physiological mechanism of adaptation, during which the body is able to adapt, increasing its functional reserve
