Hyperventilation (C0020578)

Definition (MSH)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.
Definition (NCI)Abnormally prolonged, rapid, and deep breathing.
