Influence of cerebral blood flow on the ventilatory response to hypoxia in humans.
The purpose of this study was to quantify the possible reduction in ventilation that could be attributed to changes in cerebral blood flow (CBF) with hypoxia to determine whether it could be of sufficient magnitude to underlie hypoxic ventilatory decline (HVD). Six subjects underwent 20 min of isoca...
