Trial Outcomes

Cardiac Output

Arterial blood samples will be obtained before, during, and after the VO2max exercise test in the hypobaric chamber at a simulated altitude of 15,000 feet. Exercise level will be increased every 3 minutes until test termination criteria are achieved. Samples will be obtained during the fifth minute of rest prior to exercise, during the third minute of each exercise level (referred to as stage below) and during the fifth minute post exercise. Cardiac output (CO) will be calculated using the Fick Principle: CO = V̇O2/(CaO2 - Cv̄O2) where CaO2 and Cv̄O2 represent the arterial and mixed venous oxygen content, respectively. CaO2 and CvO2 will be determined from analysis of the arterial blood samples using an IL GEM 4000 analyzer. VO2 will be reported as the final 30 secon average value of each stage. Subjects in the Riociguat cohorts will be tested prior to receiving drug and 90 minutes after receiving drug (midway through a three hour rest period between altitude exposures). (NCT02024386)
Timeframe: At rest, every 3 minutes during the exercise test and 5 minutes after each exercise test

Exercise level will be increased every 3 minutes until test termination criteria are achieved. Measurements will be obtained at rest, every 3 minutes during the exercise test (referred to as a stage below) and at 5 minutes post exercise. Results will be reported as a 30 second average. Subjects in the Riociguat cohorts will be tested prior to receiving drug and 90 minutes after receiving drug (midway through a three hour rest period between altitude exposures). (NCT02024386)
Timeframe: At rest, every 3 minutes during the exercise test and 5 minutes after each exercise test
