Ventilatory Response to Carbon Dioxide during Moderate Exercise: Masayoshi T akahashi , et al . National Institute for Resources and Environment —Elevated carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) concentration is one of the most important physiological stressors with closed‐circuit breathing‐apparatus (CCBA). We determined the ventilatory response to CO 2 during moderate exercise by measuring the relationship between V E and P ET CO 2 . Based on our findings, it is recommended that the permissible inhaled CO 2 limit for CCBA in the Japan Industrial Standard (JIS) be lowered from 3% to 2%, and that the members of a rescue or fire fighter team who use CCBA be selected on the basis of their ventilatory sensitivity to CO 2 .
