Abstract:-Adaptation to C0 2 produces a typical breathing pattern of increased tidal volume and lowered respiratory rate. Anatomical and physiological deadspace, as well as arterial-alveolar C0 2 and 0 2 gradients, are increased under these condions. The relationship of these findings with the well known lowered respiratory response to high C0 2 concentrations after 0O 2 adaptation is discussed. Evidence for C0 2 adaptation in routine diving is presented. Zusammenfassung -Die Anpassung an längerdauernde Kohlensäure Ein… Show more
