Peripheral chemoreflex function in hyperoxia following ventilatory acclimatization to altitude.
After a period of ventilatory acclimatization to high altitude (VAH), a degree of hyperventilation persists after relief of the hypoxic stimulus. This is likely, in part, to reflect the altered acid-base status, but it may also arise, in part, from the development during VAH of a component of caroti...
