Treatment depends on the cause.Any cause that involves the medulla in the brain where the respiratory centre is located & puts pressure on it should be sought for & dealt with.Any mass lesion or stroke could cause it & relieveng the pressure surgically could improve it otherwise it can get better with time once the oedema subsides however it denotes a poor prognosis.

What is ataxic respiration?
Ataxic respiration is an irregular and unpredictable breathing pattern characterized by varying depths and rates of breaths, often resulting in periods of apnea (temporary cessation of breathing). It is typically associated with damage to the brainstem, particularly the medulla oblongata, which regulates the autonomic control of respiration. This type of breathing can be seen in conditions such as stroke, traumatic brain injury, or other neurological disorders. The erratic nature of ataxic respiration can indicate a serious underlying health issue.
What causes ataxic dysarthria?
Ataxic dysarthria is caused by damage to the cerebellum or its connections to the cerebral cortex or brain-stem.

Does chemotherapy treatment commonly lead to the development of anemia in patients?

What are some causes of ataxic gait?
There are many possible causes of ataxic gait. Such causes include multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy, stroke, head trauma, and even chicken pox complications.
When a patients respiration is being counted its best that they?
don't know you are counting it
Have artificial respiration or oxygenation saved patients suffering from lack of oxygen?
Yes, artificial respiration and oxygenation techniques have been essential in saving patients suffering from lack of oxygen. They help to provide vital oxygen to the body when the natural breathing process is compromised due to various medical conditions or emergencies. These interventions can help stabilize the patient's condition until further treatment can be provided.
What malignant melanoma patients may be candidates for treatment with aldesleukin?
Patients with metastatic melanoma who do not respond well to other therapies may be candidates for treatment with aldesleukin.
Why do some patients with severe myasthenia gravis need artificial respiration to help them breathe?
Some patients with severe myasthenia gravis experience significant weakness in the respiratory muscles due to the autoimmune attack on acetylcholine receptors at the neuromuscular junction. This muscle weakness can lead to respiratory failure, making it difficult for patients to inhale adequately and maintain sufficient oxygen levels. In such cases, artificial respiration may be required to support breathing and ensure proper oxygenation until the patient's condition stabilizes or improves with treatment.
What is the Practice of sorting patients according to treatment?
triage
Can a doctor refuse treatment to patients in western Australia?
