What is the difference between pulmonary O2 toxicity and CNS O2 toxicity? |
|
Definition
Pulmonary O2 toxicity is where you are exposed to .5+ PPO2 for 12 hours or more, with signs and symptoms such as shallow breaths, painful and labored breathing. while CNS is your body reacting to high concentrations of O2. |
