Other products of Porton Down s research and development at the end of the 1930s included eye shields to protect against high-altitude liquid mustard gas attack, the oil-skin anti-gas cape, impregnated battle dress, protective dubbing for boots, detectors and detector paints, decontamination procedures, gas identification sets for service units, respirators and anti-gas covers for horses and dogs. Protection for camels was also studied a prototype respirator still exists in the establishment at Porton Down. [Pg.54]

Q5 Alkalosis can be caused by both metabolic and respiratory problems. Apart from hyperventilation, respiratory alkalosis can be produced by hypoxia, for example, when a person moves to high altitude with a reduced arterial P02, stimulation of respiration occurs via the peripheral chemoreceptors in the carotid and aortic bodies, which respond to the low arterial P02. Increased rate and depth of respiration causes an increased quantity of C02 to be lost from the body, and so pH rises. [Pg.188]

Any situation that causes an increase in respiration can result in respiratory alkalosis if the situation persists long enough. Anxiety, if extreme, can cause hyperventilation and loss of CO. Low oxygen levels in the blood (i.e., hypoxemia), such as is caused by lung disease or high altitudes (which have lower oxygen levels in the air), can stimulate a patient to breathe faster. [Pg.173]

In a normal person at high altitude, where the atmospheric pressure is reduced, hypoxia provides a drive to respiration. This leads to hyperventilation. In this condition, both the alveolar P02 and Pcoj are lower than in the subject at sea level. [Pg.120]
