The Buteyko method emphasizes the role of carbon dioxide and hyperventilation in respiratory diseases as well as overall health.

Cheyne–Stokes respiration is an abnormal pattern of breathing characterized by progressively deeper, and sometimes faster, breathing followed by a gradual decrease that results in a temporary stop in breathing called an apnea. The pattern repeats, with each cycle usually taking 30 seconds to 2 minutes. [1] It is an oscillation of ventilation ...
