21 Ιουλ 2024 · Hypoventilation syndromes are disorders that result in insufficient ventilation and hypercapnia. Learn about the etiology, presentation, workup, and treatment of central, obesity-related, chest wall, neuromuscular, and COPD-related hypoventilation.
31 Ιουλ 2022 · Learn about the causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment, and complications of a rare disorder that affects breathing. Find out how to prevent and manage this condition that mainly affects men 20 to 50 years old.
31 Μαΐ 2023 · Hypoventilation is shallow, slow breathing that lowers oxygen and raises carbon dioxide in the blood. Learn about the different types of hypoventilation, such as primary alveolar hypoventilation, and how they are diagnosed and treated.
Alveolar hypoventilation occurs when ventilation of the alveoli is low in relation to O 2 consumption and CO 2 production such that the partial oxygen tension (P o 2) falls and the partial carbon dioxide tension (P co 2) rises.
Learn about the causes, symptoms, and treatments of hypoventilation syndromes, which include alveolar hypoventilation. Find out how to use oxygen therapy, ventilation, surgery, and diet to correct the underlying disorder and improve gas exchange.
As in congenital and inherited neuromuscular disease, described above, monitoring of symptoms and respiratory function and breathing during sleep are key to management of chronic hypoventilation in motor neurone disease/amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (MND/ALS).
