The feeling unusually tired and running out of breath is due to the tissue hypoxia. The tissue hypoxia is when the oxygen-carrying capacity of hemoglobin is reduced (Porth & Matfin, 2009)(page 284). Without red blood cells then oxygen cannot be transported equally to all cells throughout the body.
Understanding Your Blood Results
RBC (Red Blood Count) measures the total number of red blood cells in a given volume of blood. RBC’s main function is to carry oxygen to tissue. Normal Range: 3.80-5.10 x10E3/uL. Hemoglobin: Hemoglobin (HGB) measures the protein found in a red blood cell. It contains iron and carries oxygen from lungs to …

The red blood cell is in the right atria, meaning it is currently deoxygenated and in the pulmonary circulation circuit. At this time the hemoglobin is not binding O. 2, but the red blood cell is carrying CO 2 waste, in the form of bicarbonate, to the lungs to be exhaled. The red blood cell moves from the right atrium to the right ventricle via ...

Their hypoxic blood stimulates the kidneys to secrete erythropoietin which leads to increased levels of red blood cells. At altitude, these red blood cells are necessary to carry sufficient oxygen levels. However, these additional red blood cells will benefit the athlete by allowing them to carry more oxygen to their muscles when they compete.
