centre as it is significantly higher! so does 02 remove the stimulus to breath or is it CO2 narcosis (due to hypercpania) that depresses the central nervous system and ultimately the respiratory centre? anybody know? thanks
At a P02 of 60mmhg peripheral chemoreceptors are stimulated, so it has been said that COPD patiens rely on there hypoxic drive more than there hypercpanic drive to breathe. However during an exacerbation ventilation is impaired and CO2 can rise, and would giving high conc oxygen only increase hypercapnia by mechanism of the haldane effect and Hypoxic pulmoanry vasoconstriction. the patient is adequately oxygenated but should the high CO2 not reach a threshold which stimulates the respiratory
Thank You! :)

@mstrode4449 I thought high o2 in the lungs causes vasoconstriction of the vessels.
