Relationship of Hypocapnea with Hypoventilation as Well as Hyperventilation and Effects of Hypocapnea on Blood, Central Nervous System as well as Respiration
Abstract
Hypocapnea takes place particularly during hypoventilation. Hypocapnea is manifested by reduced CO2 content in the blood. Hypocapnea exhibits an adverse effects especially on blood, central nervous system (CNS) and respiration. Hypocapnea results in reduced pH of blood. Hypocapnea leads to the occurrence of dizziness, mental confusion, muscular twitching and loss of consciousness regarding nervous system
