referred to breathing when metabolic acidosis was sufficiently severe for the respiratory rate to be normal or reduced. This definition is also followed by several other sources, including for instance
Merriam-Webster, which defines Kussmaul breathing as "abnormally slow deep respiration
75:
Kussmaul breathing occurs only in advanced stages of acidosis, and is not commonly seen. Rapid, shallow breathing may be observed in less severe cases but
Kussmaul breathing is a characteristic deep, gasping - even desperate - manner of respiratory distress.
60:, breathing is first rapid and shallow but as acidosis worsens, breathing gradually becomes deep, labored and gasping. It is this latter type of breathing pattern that is referred to as Kussmaul breathing.

characteristic of air hunger and occurring especially in acidotic states". Other sources, however, use the term
Kussmaul respiration also when acidosis is less severe, in which case breathing is rapid.
