  • Title: Hyperventilation and panic attacks.
    Author: Hoes MJ, Colla P, van Doorn P, Folgering H, de Swart J.
    Journal: J Clin Psychiatry; 1987 Nov; 48(11):435-7. PubMed ID: 3680183.
    Abstract:
    The symptoms of hyperventilation syndrome and panic disorder are very similar. A questionnaire was used to assess the incidence of panic disorder in 274 patients; 35% of the patients with hyperventilation and only 5% of the non-hyperventilating patients showed panic disorder. The authors conclude that hyperventilation plays an important role in panic disorder and in generalized anxiety disorder.
