    Br J Psychiatry. 1988 Nov;153:687-9.

    Demonstration and treatment of hyperventilation causing asthma.

    Hibbert G, Pilsbury D.

    University of Oxford, Department of Psychiatry, Warneford Hospital.

    Comment in:

    Ambulant, transcutaneous PCO2 monitoring has been used to show that hyperventilation precedes exacerbation of asthma in a patient. Brief treatment was shown to give him greater control of his breathing and enable him to avoid attacks of asthma.
