Oxygen
therapy is prescribed in the case of certain chronic respiratory ailments.
These include such conditions as emphysema and sarcoidosis, which
reduce the ability of the lungs to transfer enough oxygen to the blood,
resulting in oxygen deprivation. Oxygen therapy is used to normalize
the oxygen level in blood during sleep, rest, activity and during
acute illnesses in the hospital.
Oxygen is an odorless, colorless and tasteless gas that is essential
to most life, as we know it. When we breathe, oxygen enters the lungs
and is absorbed into the blood. Oxygen, combined with the foods we
eat, is what gives the cells in our body the energy we need. Oxygen
therapy addresses any deficiencies in oxygen levels that one may experience.
Oxygen therapy systems may include portable oxygen systems and pulmonary
medication devices that allow patients with serious lung and heart
problems to continue or even start oxygen therapy at home. Hospital
stays can be shortened, and in some instances, avoided. New technologies
in oxygen therapy allow the delivery of oxygen at rates and concentrations
to satisfy the changingneeds of a patient, whether at rest or during
activities. This, combined with new lightweight portable equipment,
allows patients to be more active in and outside the home - and even
travel.
