Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Core temperature

This is an experitmetal study. Subjects receive oxygen or placebo-air during one night in random order. Outcome measure, i.e.core temperatue is measured continuously during this night with ongoing treatment of oxygen or placebo-air

Time frame: One day

Secondary Outcomes

Sleep stages, apnea-hypopnea index

This is an experitmetal study. Subjects receive oxygen or placebo-air during one night in random order. Outcome measure, i.e.the amount of differernt sleep stages, total sleep time and apnea-hypopnea index is measured during this night with ongoing treatment of oxygen or placebo-air

Time frame: One day
