The dangers of hyperventilation

Among middle-aged and elderly people, if they experience chest tightness, they will feel suffocated, which may induce heart disease. Ventilation can greatly improve this symptom, and it is also the main method chosen by many people. However, people should pay attention to the dangers of hyperventilation. If you hyperventilate, you will experience numbness in your hands and feet, and even impaired consciousness.

Some patients with hyperventilation syndrome will experience chest tightness and a feeling of suffocation during the illness, accompanied by palpitations, tachycardia and chest pain. Patients with hyperventilation syndrome will experience numbness in the extremities, convulsions in the hands and feet, and long-term illness may also cause impaired consciousness and dizziness and headaches.

By analyzing the symptoms of hyperventilation syndrome, we can understand the severity of the disease. Therefore, if you suspect you are ill, you must go to the hospital for the most comprehensive physical examination in time. Currently, common methods for examining hyperventilation syndrome include blood gas analysis, electrocardiogram and laboratory tests.

Diagnosis of hyperventilation syndrome requires identification of the cause of the disease after excluding other organic diseases. Medically, psychological hyperventilation is considered an important factor in the occurrence of hyperventilation syndrome. In addition, the interaction of factors such as metabolic abnormalities, anaerobic hypoxia, central nervous system diseases, salicylic acid poisoning, Gram-negative bacterial sepsis, and sudden correction of metabolic acidosis can also cause the disease.

If hyperventilation syndrome is diagnosed, the most comprehensive treatment should be taken. Most patients can choose intravenous injection, and patients with anxiety symptoms can use sedatives. The process of treating hyperventilation syndrome is relatively long, and patience is required to achieve good results. Patients with hyperventilation syndrome need to pay close attention to changes in their bodies during treatment, avoid psychological pressure, ensure adequate sleep, pay attention to changes in temperature, and avoid catching cold. These are all very important.
