Yogic breathing in hypobaric environment: breathing exercising and its effect on hypobaric hypoxemia and heart rate at 3,650-m elevation

Original language description

High altitude sojourn is a risk factor for hypobaric hypoxemia and subsequent altitude sickness. The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of new type of yogic breathing-Maheshwarananda&apos;s new Modified Bhujangini Pranayama performed by active yoga practitioners-on the arterial haemoglobin saturation of oxygen (measured by the pulse oximetry - SpO(2)) and the heart rate compared to normal spontaneous resting breathing. A pilot prospective study was conducted in the Himalayas at an altitude of 3,650 m. We monitored SpO(2) and pulse rate in 34 experienced yoga practitioners. Within the 3 measurement days at the altitude of 3,650 m, the mean value of SpO(2) increased from 89.11 +/- 4.78 to 93.26 +/- 4.44 (P&lt;0.001) after the yogic breathing exercise. No significant changes were observed in pulse rate (P&lt;0.230) measured before and after yogic breathing. The new Yogic breathing-Maheshwarananda&apos;s Modified Bhujangini Pranayama-is increasing the arterial haemoglobin saturation compared to normal resting spontaneous breathing. The heart rate was not affected by this type of yogic breathing.
