Difference between Carbon dioxide and Hypoventilation

Carbon dioxide vs. Hypoventilation

Carbon dioxide (chemical formula) is a colorless gas with a density about 60% higher than that of dry air. Hypoventilation (also known as respiratory depression) occurs when ventilation is inadequate (hypo meaning "below") to perform needed gas exchange.

Similarities between Carbon dioxide and Hypoventilation

Carbon dioxide and Hypoventilation have 6 things in common (in Unionpedia): Ethanol, Hypercapnia, Hyperventilation, Medication, Respiratory acidosis, Shortness of breath.

Ethanol

Ethanol, also called alcohol, ethyl alcohol, grain alcohol, and drinking alcohol, is a chemical compound, a simple alcohol with the chemical formula.

Hypercapnia

Hypercapnia, also known as hypercarbia and CO2 retention, is a condition of abnormally elevated carbon dioxide (CO2) levels in the blood.

Hyperventilation

Hyperventilation (a.k.a. overbreathing) occurs when the rate or tidal volume of breathing eliminates more carbon dioxide than the body can produce.

Medication

A medication (also referred to as medicine, pharmaceutical drug, or simply drug) is a drug used to diagnose, cure, treat, or prevent disease.

Respiratory acidosis

Respiratory acidosis is a medical emergency in which decreased ventilation (hypoventilation) increases the concentration of carbon dioxide in the blood and decreases the blood's pH (a condition generally called acidosis).

Shortness of breath

Shortness of breath, also known as dyspnea, is the feeling that one cannot breathe well enough.

Carbon dioxide and Hypoventilation Comparison

Carbon dioxide has 380 relations, while Hypoventilation has 44. As they have in common 6, the Jaccard index is 1.42% = 6 / (380 + 44).
