Effects of CO2 on immediate ventilatory response to O2 in preterm infants
Effects of CO2 on immediate ventilatory response to O2 in preterm infants is a scholarly work, published in 1976 in ''Journal of applied physiology''. The main subjects of the publication include preterm infant, oxygen, Control of respiration, hypoventilation, anaesthesia, hypoxia, respiratory system, peripheral, infant respiratory distress syndrome, hyperventilation, peripheral chemoreceptor, medicine, Hypoxic ventilatory response, chemoreceptor cell, internal medicine, chemistry, hypercapnia, respiration, mechanical ventilation, central chemoreceptor, ventilation, and hyperoxia. We wanted to know wheter the paradoxical response to CO2 under various background concentrations of O2 in preterm infants was mediated at the peripheral chemoreceptors.
