Hyperventilation is irregular breathing that occurs when the rate or tidal volume of breathing eliminates more carbon dioxide than the body can produce. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] This leads to hypocapnia , a reduced concentration of carbon dioxide dissolved in the blood.
Hyperventilation syndrome (HVS), also known as chronic hyperventilation syndrome (CHVS), dysfunctional breathing hyperventilation syndrome, cryptotetany, [1] [2] spasmophilia, [3] [4] [5] latent tetany, [4] [5] and central neuronal hyper excitability syndrome (NHS), [3] is a respiratory disorder, psychologically or physiologically based, involving breathing too deeply or too rapidly ...
The Buteyko method emphasizes the role of carbon dioxide and hyperventilation in respiratory diseases as well as overall health. It is known that hyperventilation can lead to low carbon dioxide levels in the blood (or hypocapnea), which can subsequently lead to disturbances of the acid-base balance in the blood and lower tissue oxygen levels.
Voluntary hyperventilation before beginning voluntary apnea is commonly believed to allow the person involved to safely hold their breath for a longer period. In reality, it will give the impression that one does not need to breathe, while the body is actually experiencing a blood-oxygen level that would normally, and indirectly, invoke a ...
The Hering-Breuer reflex that terminates inhalation to prevent over inflation of the lungs, and the reflex responses of coughing, airway constriction, and hyperventilation. The upper airway receptors are responsible for reflex responses such as, sneezing, coughing, closure of glottis, and hiccups.
Sometimes, when someone is sharing difficult feelings, all they want is to feel validated. Dr. Ho says that this phrase is a “validating statement” that can help the other person to not feel ...
Hyperventilating and variants may refer to: Hyperventilation, the act of hyperventilating; Hyperventilation syndrome, a medical condition involving hyperventilating; Cheyne–Stokes respiration, the breathing disorder; Hypocapnia, a physiological result of hyperventilating "Hyperventilating" (song), a 2006 song by Tami Chynn
Anderson also advises people not to try to force their loved ones into talking about what they have gone through. Even if you have the best intentions and believe it would help them, resist this urge.
