another cause

[edit]

The definition of Hypoventilation given at the beginning of the article is met by lack of breathable air, like under water or in vacuum. Should it be added to the list of possible causes? 2003:C9:9F3A:7300:70CC:DB5F:1FB8:1D7D (talk) 19:38, 7 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Snoring

[edit]

What about sleep apnoea? With sleep apnea, breathing can stop for more than 30 seconds. Quote from the article: "Longstanding recurrent episodes of apnea, over months and years, may cause an increase in carbon dioxide levels that can change the pH of the blood enough to cause a respiratory acidosis." --77.190.144.45 (talk) 20:17, 22 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
