Hypoventilation (reduced alveolar ventilation) decreases the Pao2 and increases the Paco2, thereby decreasing Pao2. In cases of pure hypoventilation, the (A-a)Do2 is normal.
Hypoventilation: The state in which a reduced amount of air enters the alveoli in the lungs, resulting in decreased levels of oxygen and increased levels of carbon dioxide in the blood.

Studies have suggested that in major or minor seizures, the disturbance in brain activity from the seizure causes under-breathing (hypoventilation) of the lungs.
Respiratory System: Hyperventilation, hypoventilation, apnea of short duration (5 to 90 seconds with spontaneous recovery); laryngospasm, hiccup and snoring suggestive of partial upper airway obstruction have been observed in some patients.
