Exercise performance reduction and preventive measures in highland sports / 中南大学学报(医学版)

ABSTRACT

The plateau is a special environment with low pressure,low oxygen,low temperature,and high ultraviolet radiation.The exercise performance of people on the plateau is generally reduced,which seriously affects the life and health of people living in the plateau and entering the plateau.In recent years,the prevention and treatment of injury caused by high altitude hypoxia has attracted wide attention.It has shown that the higher the altitude with the longer the duration of exercise,the faster the stationing,the greater the impact on people's sports performance.Rapid entry into the plateau and long-term stay in the plateau have an impact on people's explosive power,endurance and fine operation.Advances in medical technology enable various prevention methods to be used to acclimate to high altitude environments.However,in vitro intervention methods are costly,easy to rebound and possess limited effects.Therefore,drug prevention and treatment is obviously a more economical choice.Chemical drugs increase the efficiency of high altitude exercise by improving the ischemic and hypoxic symptoms of the heart and brain,increasing lung ventilation and arterial oxygenation capacity,and accelerating the elimination of adverse product accumulation after exercise.Single Chinese medicine,Chinese patent medicine,and compound preparations can improve exercise performance by promoting body metabolism,improving muscle endurance,enhancing immunity,and other mechanisms.Traditional Chinese medicine has unique advantage and application prospect in improving plateau sports performance damage.
