Hypercapnia is a medical condition characterized by elevated levels of carbon dioxide in the bloodstream. It occurs when ventilation is inadequate relative to metabolic CO2 production, leading to respiratory acidosis and potential organ compromise if untreated. The term combines hyper-, capn-, and -ia to denote excess CO2 in blood.
