Oxygen (O(2)) is a vital element. Shortage of O(2) results in deranged metabolism and important changes in vascular tone with opposite effects on the systemic and pulmonary circulation. During hypoxemia, oxidative stress exposes the organism to a sort of accelerated senescence as well as to several acute untoward effects.

Hyperbaric oxygen — 100 percent oxygen at two to three times the atmospheric pressure at sea level — can result in arterial oxygen tension in excess of 2000 mm Hg1 and oxygen tension in tissue of almost 400 mm Hg.2,3 Such doses of oxygen have a number of beneficial biochemical, cellular, and physiologic effects, and today there are 259 hyperbaric ...

Oxygen therapy and oxygen toxicity
Annals of Emergency Medicine, 1983When oxygen therapy is warranted, the minimum effective dose generally should be given. Hypoxemic patients who have normal baseline ABG may be treated initially with an intermediate to high FiO2 in the range of 35% to 100%, depending on the severity of the respiratory distress. The majority of patients with exacerbations of COPD who are not in extremis

Chronic low flow oxygen is useful therapy for patients with chronic obstructive lung disease who are crippled by hypoxemia despite optimal programs of usual respiratory care. Patients should be considered for chronic oxygen therapy who have (a) a resting Pao2 less than 55 mm Hg while breathing room air; or (b) profound tissue hypoxemia measured by ...

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO) is the administration of 100 percent oxygen at greater than normal atmospheric pressure. It is administered in a hyperbaric chamber. It is the primary treatment modality for acute carbon monoxide poisoning, acute gas embolism, and decompression sickness and is used as adjunctive treatment for compromised skin grafts, gas

Patients with polycythemia, pulmonary hypertension, or cor pulmonale are most likely to benefit from home oxygen therapy; in others, exercise tolerance can be improved and neuropsychologic effects of hypoxemia relieved. Indications for home therapy, methods of delivering outpatient oxygen, economic considerations, and possible complications are ...

Home oxygen therapy has well-established benefits for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and resting hypoxemia. The indications for therapy have been clearly defined in the United States by the Health Care Financing Administration (HCFA), and these guidelines have been accepted by most third-party payers.
