ipercapnia
Sign in to saveHypercapnia (from the Greek hyper, "above" or "too much" and kapnos, "smoke"), also known as hypercarbia and CO2 retention, is a condition of abnormally elevated carbon dioxide (CO2) levels in the blood. Carbon dioxide is a gaseous product of the body's metabolism and is normally expelled through the lungs.

L'ipercapnia (dal greco hyper: oltre, e kapnos: fumo) è l'aumento nel sangue della concentrazione di anidride carbonica (CO2). L'anidride carbonica è un prodotto di scarto dei processi metabolici cellulari. Nei liquidi corporei si scioglie e forma l'acido carbonico, che durante l'espirazione, viene eliminato dai polmoni sotto forma di anidride carbonica. Se questo meccanismo diviene difettoso, l'acido carbonico determina l'acidosi respiratoria accumulandosi nel sangue. L'opposto dell'ipercapnia è l'ipocapnia.
