Furthermore, optimizing gas exchange by avoiding hypoxia and hyperoxia as well as maintaining normocarbia may improve neurological and survival outcome.

Armstrong; Matthew N. Bartels; Mahidol University; Columbia University Medical Center, respectively, p < 0.05). Conclusion: Exercise capacity and gas exchange remain unaffected in patients with COPD in the presence of BB, although heart rate and blood pressure are lower. These findings imply that BB does not adversely affect functional capacity.... The aim of this study was to determine whether BB affects exercise capacity, gas exchange, and hemodynamic responses in patients with COPD.
