Question: Which finding indicates the need to immediately
reduce oxygen flow?
A) SpO₂ increases to 92%
B) Respiratory rate decreases from 24 to 10 breaths/min
C) Patient reports less dyspnea
D) PaCO₂ decreases from 58 to 52 mmHg
Answer: B
Rationale: COPD patients with chronic hypercapnia rely on
hypoxic drive. Oxygen-induced hypoventilation occurs when
high O₂ removes hypoxic drive, causing respiratory
depression. Rate drop to 10 is dangerous.
