Hyperventilation

The definition of hyperventiltion is “A state in which there is an increased amount of air entering the pulmonary alveoli (increased alveolar ventilation) resulting in a reduction of carbon dioxide tension which may eventually lead to alkalosis.”

Symptoms

Unnaturally fast, deep breathing

There may also be:

  • Attention seeking behaviour
  • Dizziness, faintness
  • Trembling, or tingling in the hands
  • Cramps in the hands and feet

Treatment

The aim is to remove the patient from any cause of distress and calm them down. When speaking to the patient be firm, but kind. If possible lead the patient to a quiet place, where they may better be able to regain control of their breathing. If cramps persist, let the patient re-breathe their own exhaled air from a bag. Current practice is to use a paper bag However paper bags are:

  • Often not available when you want one
  • Not easy to hold
  • Not easy to use
  • Likely to absorb moisture and break, causing additional anxiety
  • A possible cause of hypoxia
  • Potential source of inhalable foreign bodies
  • Potential source of infection
