...hyperventilation is actually a state of "overbreathing." When people breathe faster or more deeply than normal, they breathe off too much of their carbon dioxide, leading to unpleasant symptoms including anxiety and panic, and at the same time leading the body to restrict the amount of oxygen that gets to the brain.
The results of the SMU research are promising, but apparently more research is needed before anyone can say for sure that the technique works better than traditional strategies for stopping hyperventilation. Another problem: unless you happen to have a capnometer lying around the house, you're pretty much out of luck when it comes to giving CART a try.
