New research shows that febrile seizures in children may be linked to respiratory alkalosis, indicated by elevated blood pH and low carbon dioxide levels caused by hyperventilation, and independent of ...

THE hyperventilation syndrome, as seen in anxious, tense persons, is characterized by paresthesia of the extremities and circumoral area, sensations of lightheadedness and altered consciousness and ...

Extract: Maternal respiratory alkalosis from hyperventilation before delivery has been associated with depression and acidosis of some newborn infants. In these in utero studies of 6 primate fetuses, ...

Study design: A pilot case control study of the acid-base and electrolyte status in 30 long-term ventilator-dependent (LTVD) and 30 self ventilating persons with tetraplegia. Objectives: To assess the ...

The acid-base composition of plasma during hypocapneic anesthesia in man has been used to construct a 95 per cent significance band defining the acute steady-state response to reduced carbon dioxide ...

New research shows that febrile seizures in children may be linked to respiratory alkalosis, indicated by elevated blood pH and low carbon dioxide levels caused by hyperventilation, and independent of ...

It has emerged from new research that febrile seizures in children may be linked to respiratory alkalosis, indicated by elevated blood pH and low carbon dioxide levels caused by hyperventilation, and ...

Acid-base balance refers to the levels of acidity and alkalinity your blood needs in order to keep your body functioning. Too much acid in the blood is known as acidosis, while too much alkalinity is ...

Metabolic alkalosis usually results from severe vomiting or a potassium or chloride deficiency. Dietary changes or intravenous fluids can help these cases. But it may also indicate organ failure and ...
