Understand the Problem

The question is asking the user to indicate whether specific physiological states would lead to an increase or decrease in respiratory effort. This involves understanding the effect of each state on respiration.

Answer

Fever: Increase, Hypercapnia: Increase, Sleep: Decrease, Acidification: Increase, Loss of CO2: Decrease, Hypoxaemia: Increase, Sympathetic activity: Increase

Fever - Increase, Hypercapnia - Increase, Sleep - Decrease, Acidification of the cerebrospinal fluid - Increase, Excessive loss of carbon dioxide - Decrease, Hypoxaemia - Increase, Increased sympathetic nerve activity - Increase

Answer for screen readers

Fever - Increase, Hypercapnia - Increase, Sleep - Decrease, Acidification of the cerebrospinal fluid - Increase, Excessive loss of carbon dioxide - Decrease, Hypoxaemia - Increase, Increased sympathetic nerve activity - Increase

More Information

Increased respiratory effort is commonly seen with conditions that demand more oxygen or need to expel excess carbon dioxide, while decreased effort might occur during rest or with reduced respiratory drive.

Tips

Remember that any condition increasing metabolic demand or affecting respiratory gases usually raises respiratory effort.
