Muscle Oxygenation Level Might Trigger the Regulation of Capillary Venous Blood Filling during Fatiguing Isometric Muscle Actions

The regulation of oxygen and blood supply during isometric muscle actions is still unclear. Recently, two behavioral types of oxygen saturation (SvO<sub>2</sub>) and relative hemoglobin amount (rHb) in venous microvessels were described during a fatiguing holding isometric muscle action...
