Abstract
The presence of hyperoxic hyperventilation seems to have been well confirmed in humans by Becker et al (1995) when the PETco2 is maintained at a normocapnic level. They also observed that augmented ventilation at higher than the control level still continued even 15 min after termination of hyperoxia, suggesting that a humoral agent might be involved to stimulate ventilation.
