The implications of the diving response in altering carbon dioxide sensitivity as measured by changes in heart rate, respiration rate and psychological measures in panic disorder patients
As hypothesized, the CFI task demonstrated anxiolytic effects in individuals with PD by reducing self-reported anxiety and panic symptoms. These findings highlight the potential of the CFI task for clinical application in the treatment of panic disorder, warranting further research with larger samples.
