ReplyDeleteBoosting the breathing response
The fact that CO2 diffuses out relatively easily compared to oxygen diffusing into the lungs
is highly relevant. Because the breathing control [rate and depth of breathing] is based on
sensing the CO2 in the blood, not the oxygen level in the blood, the patient will not be
breathing sufficiently. They need to be told to breathe much more rapidly. However they
will not feel the need to breathe rapidly, because the CO2 blood level is normal.
They can consciously breathe more rapidly and deeply when awake / conscious, however
this will not work while they are asleep / unconscious. In order for the breathing to be
automatically increased it will be necessary to ADD CO2 to the air supply. As well as the
additional oxygen. This may seem counter-intuitive.
