Kim is breathing at a rate of 26 ventilation per minute. This would be considered hyperventilation.
The breathing process of the human body is a very complex mechanism, which requires balance between the amount of oxygen that is taken to the lungs and the amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) that is eliminated by it.
When this balance is disrupted and the person ends up inhaling much more oxygen than the amount of carbon dioxide that is eliminated, he is diagnosed with a condition of hyperventilation.
When a person is hyperventilating, it is possible to notice that their breathing is much faster than normal or they breathe much more deeply than usual.
Other signs of hyperventilation include tachycardia, exhaustion, dizziness, chest pain, dry mouth, and tingling in the extremities, such as in the fingertips. The person with this condition may feel very distressed and uncomfortable, in addition to passing out and having other symptoms, but, in general, hyperventilation cannot kill.
