End Tidal and Mixed Venous Carbon Dioxide Tensions During Exposure to and Recovery from Voluntary Hyperventilation,

Abstract

The relationship between end tidal and mixed venous carbon dioxide tensions has been studied during exposure to, and recovery from, voluntary hyperventilation in 4 subjects. The experiments were designed to study the feasibility of using a single rebreathing estimate of mixed venous carbon dioxide tension as a simple field test for hyperventilation in pilots.
