The human ventilatory response to step changes in end-tidal PO2 of differing amplitude.
This study assessed whether the form of the peripheral chemoreflex response to hypoxia depends on the magnitude of the stimulus. Two amplitudes of square-wave hypoxic stimulation were employed: small amplitude (SO) PETO2 from 63.2 to 54.9 Torr, and large amplitude (LO) PETO2 from 73.0 to 48.0 Torr....
