Applicable Clinical Terms Definitions

Hyperventilation: A pulmonary ventilation rate faster than is metabolically necessary for the exchange of gases. It is the result of an increased frequency of breathing, an increased tidal volume, or a combination of both. It causes an excess intake of oxygen and the blowing off of carbon dioxide.

Infant, Newborn: An infant during the first 28 days after birth.

Dyspnea: Difficult or labored breathing.
