Alteration of Respiratory Response to Chemical Stimuli Following Serial Hyperbaric Exposures.

Abstract

Experiments have been performed to quantitate the respiratory responses to Carbon dioxide inhalation and hypoxia of hyperbarically-naive subjects. The subjects were given a series of standard hyperbaric exposures and their respiratory responses determined after each exposure over a period of two months. The subjects were subsequently restricted from further hyperbaric exposure for a further three months and their respiratory responses were determined approximately every two weeks. (Author)
