Abstract
The ventilatory response to dynamic exercise is divided into three phases. Initially, there is a fast rise in expiratory ventilation (\(\mathop \text{V}\limits^\text{.}\))at the onset of exercise. This phase I occurs within the first breath (Asmussen, 1983) and is mainly due to a rise in frequency (Cunningham et al., 1986). Then follows an exponential increase in ventilation, with a time constant (Tc) of 1 min, to steady state. Cardiac output (\(\mathop \text{Q}\limits^\text{.}\)) changes similarly, due to a rapid increase in heart rate, followed by an exponential rise. During the latter two phases, metabolic CO2diffuses from the venous blood into the alveoli at a rate or flux, whicfh is dependent on the venous CO2concentration (Cv) and the blood flow rate (\(\mathop \text{Q}\limits^\text{.}\)), but independent\(\mathop \text{V}\limits^\text{.}\)
