Current Primary Outcome:
- degree of subjective anxiety as measured on a Visual Analogue Scale for Anxiety(VAS-A) assessed immediately after the CO2-challenge (VAS-A-post)
- difference of the degree of anxiety measured as the difference between the pre- and post challenge scores on the Visual Analogue Scale for Anxiety (VAS-A-delta)
Original Primary Outcome: Same as current
Current Secondary Outcome:
- Total Symptom Score assessed immediately after CO2 challenge (TSS-post)
- Difference of the Total Symptoms Score (TSS) measured as the difference between the pre- and post challenge scores (TSS-delta)
