An overview to chronic hyperventilation syndrome
Hyperventilation
syndrome is a breathing disorder that could be the result of prolonged
stress in a person. Emotional and environmental factor contribute
a lot to the chronic hyperventilation syndrome. Some of the results
of the chronic hyperventilation syndrome are changes to the bodily
organs, tension and headaches. In persons who have chronic hyperventilation
syndrome the carbon dioxide that is breathed out of the body is
higher than the normal and this alters the body’s pH value
which results in the changes in the body. This affects the blood
flow to the brain and the heart resulting in many symptoms.
Acute hyperventilation
is found during stressful events in life of the person who is suffering
from it. It is found that one in ten of the people are affected
by the chronic hyperventilation syndrome. Breathing pattern in such
patients is through mouth and there is no abdominal breathing instead
chest breathing is found. Pain in neck and upper chest muscles,
tension and headaches are the characteristics of hyperventilation
syndrome. It is always under diagnosed. Chronic
hyperventilation syndrome is a way of indicating that the person
concerned is in a state of stress in his or her life. People who
work too hard in their work place or who study hard or practice
very hard in sports are prone to hyperventilation syndrome.
People who need
to talk a lot like lawyers, and receptionists in companies are prone
to this hyperventilation syndrome. People who breathe through their
mouth instead of nose and people who work in dusty and noisy places
are liable to be affected by hyperventilation syndrome. People who
are affected by this syndrome have to first approach a respiratory
physiotherapist. Breathing retraining, stress recognition, sleep
hygiene and lifestyle appraisal will be done by the physiotherapist.
Counseling for anxiety and depression can be taken if necessary.
Anxiolytics can be given to reduce the anxieties in such patients.
It will take around six to eight weeks to bring back the normal
breathing pattern through retraining. Effective and regular practice
is essential.
