  • Abstract
    A classical clinical experiment, in which periodic breathing is induced in a normal subject by hyperventilation, has been successfully simulated on the high speed analog computer. The model, together with its underlying theory, is presented. Its applications to the study of individuals who experience persistent periodic (Cheyne-Stokes) breathing is indicated.
