A number of diseases affecting central ventilation, breathing mechanics or both, characterize hypoventilation syndromes. The incidence of hypoventilation syndromes varies according to the underlying reason. The hypoventilation syndrome's clinical symptoms are generally vague and are in most cases due to the underlying clinical condition. More individuals develop hypercapnia and hypoxemia as hypoventilation continues to worsen. Therefore, clinical indications of hypoxemia such as cyanosis, and evidence of hypercapnia may also be present. Regardless of the etiology, successful hypoventilation therapy focuses on the underlying illness and noninvasive ventilation. Treatment for these diseases includes integrated main disorder treatment and, increasingly, non-invasive positive pressure breathing. In this paper, we overview current evidence regarding different etiologies and management of hypoventilation syndromes. Data was collected during the period of 6 months searching Pubmed, EPISCO, Web of science, Google scholar databases to include papers with relative topics.
