Oxygen therapy

Description

Oxygen therapy is commonly used in hospital settings for the management of acute and chronic respiratory conditions, and increasingly in the community for patients with chronic conditions requiring home oxygen therapy. As with all treatments, oxygen therapy has side effects, and inappropriate use with inadequate monitoring can be fatal. The method of oxygen delivery, monitoring, target oxygen saturation, and indications for weaning should all be tailored to the individual patient. For discharged patients who require long-term oxygen therapy, risks should be discussed with patients and adequate monitoring should be established.
