Abstract
During an 8 h period of either isocapnic or poikilocapnic hypoxia, tests of the acute ventilatory response to hypoxia (AHVR) have shown that there is an increase in hypoxic sensitivity (2) accompanied by an increase in ventilation under conditions of acute hyperoxia (3). These changes were similar between the two protocols suggesting a direct effect of hypoxia per se.
