Excessive ventilation can lead to gastric inflation and an altered blood chemistry which can result in adverse cerebral effects.

Good morning!

Excessive ventilation is harmful because it increases intrathoracic pressure, decreasing venous flow and causing problems in the conduction of heartbeats, since it changes the respiratory pattern. In addition, it can cause occasional problems such as reflux and regurgitation.
