NIRS - Minimal Risk

Overview

About this study

The purpose of this study is to compare measurements of muscle oxygen transport between two different types of NIRS devices (CW-NIRS and FD-NIRS). Specifically, indices of muscle mitochondrial capacity, perfusive and diffusive oxygen conductance during exercise, and muscle microvascular function will be investigated. We will also explore individualized normalization strategies to minimize discrepancies between these technologies.
