HUMIDIFICATION OF OXYGEN DURING INHALATIONAL THERAPY

Survey of Anesthesiology, 1963
PHYSICIANS are aware that breathing oxygen by way of nasal catheter or a face mask is extremely drying to the membranes of the mouth or nasopharynx. Oxygen therapy often includes some form of humidifying device incorporated in the line between the oxygen source and the patient.

Inhalation Therapy : Oxygen Administration, Humidification, and Aérosol Therapy

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 1985
In addition to receiving treatment for the primary disease, patients with advanced respiratory disorders may benefit from other forms of respiratory support. This article discusses three techniques of inhalation therapy that will aid in maintaining an optimal pulmonary environment and in normalizing arterial oxygenation.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy for acute smoke inhalation injuries

Postgraduate Medicine, 1991
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is an important adjunct in the management of respiratory injuries secondary to smoke inhalation, especially when injury is complicated by inhalation of a toxic chemical such as carbon monoxide or cyanide. For carbon monoxide poisoning, such therapy has become a standard of practice.

High-flow oxygen therapy and other inhaled therapies in intensive care units

The Lancet, 2016
In this Series paper, we review the current evidence for the use of high-flow oxygen therapy, inhaled gases, and aerosols in the care of critically ill patients. The available evidence supports the use of high-flow nasal cannulae for selected patients with acute hypoxaemic respiratory failure.

[Pulmonary hemodynamics during oxygen non-inhalation in patients with home oxygen therapy].

Nihon Kyobu Shikkan Gakkai zasshi, 1994
We examined the effects of the stopping of oxygen inhalation on pulmonary hemodynamics in 19 patients with stable chronic cor pulmonary with 1 year of Home Oxygen Therapy (HOT). All patients were classified into two groups in which hemodynamic examination was performed under oxygen inhalation (Group A; 10) or under air breathing from 4 hours before ...

Inhaled Nitric Oxide Versus Conventional Therapy

American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 1998
A randomized, controlled clinical trial was performed with patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) to compare the effect of conventional therapy or inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) on oxygenation. Patients were randomized to either conventional therapy or conventional therapy plus iNO for 72 h.

Effect of inhaled nitric oxide on oxygen therapy, mechanical ventilation, and hypoxic respiratory failure

Minerva Pediatrics, 2018
To assess the role of inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) in reducing the need for oxygen therapy, decreasing time on mechanical ventilatory support, and attenuating probability of hypoxic respiratory failure severity progression, we reviewed published reports of phase III iNO studies in neonates with hypoxic respiratory failure and pulmonary hypertension, as ...

Economics of Inhaled Oxygen Use as an Acute Therapy for Cluster Headache in the United States of America

Headache: The Journal of Head and Face Pain, 2017
BackgroundCluster headache (CH) is a primary headache disorder associated with low levels of diagnosis and high unmet medical need. The pain attacks, associated anxiety, and fear in anticipation of the attacks are extremely debilitating to a patient with CH.
