About this study

To compare the effects of IV iron versus placebo (saline) injection on arterial oxygen saturation, submaximal exercise responses, and 2-mile treadmill time-trial performance during acute exposure to hypobaric hypoxia (430 mmHg, simulating \~4800m) assessed 1 and 14 days after treatment. Primary Hypothesis 1: IV iron treatment will improve arterial oxygen saturation at rest and during exercise in acute hypobaric hypoxia and this effect will persist for 2 weeks Primary Hypothesis 2) IV iron treatment will improve 2-mile treadmill time trial performance in acute hypobaric hypoxia and this effect will persist for 2 weeks
