  2. Hyperpnea - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperpnea

    Hyperpnea is distinguished from tachypnea, which is a respiratory rate greater than normal, resulting in rapid and shallow breaths, but not necessarily increasing volume in breathing. [1] Hyperpnea is also distinguished from hyperventilation , which is over-ventilation (an increase in minute ventilation ), which involves an increase in volume ...

  3. Conscious breathing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conscious_breathing

    In tai chi, anaerobic exercise is combined with breathing exercises to strengthen the diaphragm muscles, improve posture and make better use of the body's qi. [1]In qigong, reverse breathing is a breathing technique which consists of contracting the abdomen and expanding the thoracic cage while breathing in through the nose and then gently compressing it while exhaling through the mouth, which ...

  4. Work of breathing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Work_of_breathing

    The normal relaxed state of the lung and chest is partially empty. Further exhalation requires muscular work. Inhalation is an active process requiring work. [4] Some of this work is to overcome frictional resistance to flow, and part is used to deform elastic tissues, and is stored as potential energy, which is recovered during the passive process of exhalation, Tidal breathing is breathing ...

  5. Circular breathing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circular_breathing

    Circular breathing is a breathing technique used by players of some wind instruments to produce a continuous tone without interruption. It is accomplished by inhaling through the nose while simultaneously pushing air out through the mouth using air stored in the cheeks .

  6. Minute ventilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minute_ventilation

    Tidal volume: that volume of air moved into or out of the lungs during quiet breathing (VT indicates a subdivision of the lung; when tidal volume is precisely measured, as in gas exchange calculation, the symbol TV or V T is used.) FRC: Functional residual capacity: the volume in the lungs at the end-expiratory position: RV/TLC%

  7. Critical Role: Call of the Netherdeep - Wikipedia

    To undertake the deep-sea exploration, players will need to acquire "spells or magical items designed for underwater breathing" along with "items crafted from a unique mineral known as ruidium" in order to withstand the water pressure. [10] Players will also have to contend with the corrupting nature of ruidium.

    "The least importance attaches to these external things, namely breathing under the eyes, signing with the cross, placing salt in the mouth, putting spittle and clay on the ears and nose, anointing with oil the breast and shoulders, and signing the top of the head with chrism, vesting in the christening robe, and giving a burning candle into ...

  9. Breathing gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breathing_gas

    A breathing gas is a mixture of gaseous chemical elements and compounds used for respiration. Air is the most common and only natural breathing gas. Other mixtures of gases, or pure oxygen, are also used in breathing equipment and enclosed habitats such as scuba equipment, surface supplied diving equipment, recompression chambers, high-altitude mountaineering, high-flying aircraft, submarines ...
