Ventilatory response and delirium risk in hospitalised patients with acute hypoxia due to COVID-19

Abstract Mountaineers with a high ventilatory response to hypoxia experience greater cognitive impairment at high altitude, possibly because hyperventilation causes hypocapnia, cerebral vasoconstriction and ultimately cerebral ischaemia. We hypothesised that a high ventilatory response, and conseque...
