Things that result from hyperventilation

What is apnea?

Absence of breathing

Third thing that happens during hyperventilation

Blood vessels dilate causing BP to go down

First thing that results from hyperventilation

Does not increase o2 saturation but descreases co2 saturation

How do you reverse respiratory alkalosis

Put a bag over face to help co2 come back in and shift reactions back to right making blood relatively acidic again

Second thing that happens during hyperventilation

Reduction in Bohr effect which in turn causes you to hang on to o2 longer

What is the process called when you put more co2 out than o2 and causes the blood to become more alkaline?

Respiratory alkalosis

During hyperventilation what happens with o2 and co2

You're not putting more o2 out, you're putting more co2 out which causes the blood to become more alkaline

cheyene-stokes respiration

abnormal cycles, w/ an increasing rate/depth of respirations followed by apnea

death rattle

sound produced by air moving through mucus at time of death
