- Hypercapnia or hypercapnea (from the Greek hyper = "above" and kapnos = "smoke"), also known as hypercarbia, is a condition where there is too much carbon dioxide (CO2) in the blood. Carbon dioxide is a gaseous product of the body's metabolism and is normally expelled through the lungs.
- This is where carbon dioxide levels in the blood are raised outside the normal parameters.
- A higher than normal P02level in the blood.
- A raised level of carbon dioxide in the blood. This is the gas normally breathed out which will rise if breathing is inadequate. Usually measured by taking an arterial blood sample.
- The presence of an excessive amount of carbon dioxide in the blood. A result of shallow skip breathing or excessive hyperventilation in free diving, as well as Deep Diving on compressed air. ...
- A condition marked by an unusually high concentration of carbon dioxide in the blood (CO2 is greater than 45 mmHg) as a result of slow and/or shallow respirations (hypoventilation). Symptoms include increased respiratory rate, headache, confusion, lethargy, nausea and/or vomiting.
