The hyperoxic test (HT) examines peripheral chemoreceptor function (PCF) by measuring the decrease in ventilation (V E) after 100% O(2) inhalation. A 30-s HT has been previously used in infants with calculation of the ventilatory response (VR) as the mean percentage change in V E during HT as compar...
