Medical oxygen<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Medical oxygen <\/strong>otherwise known as inhalation oxygen<\/strong> is a breathing gas that is concentrated in a spray in a cylinders <\/strong>be can<\/strong>. This product is used to treat patients with breathing problems resulting from various ailments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is worth knowing that the oxygen concentration in the mixture must not fall below 99.5%. Oxygen cylinders<\/strong> and oxygen therapy <\/strong>is recommended for anyone with the underlying condition known as respiratory failure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The most characteristic and recognisable symptoms of insufficiency are breathlessness and an inability to take a deeper breath or to draw breath. These symptoms can occur both during and after exertion, as well as at rest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite the fact that oxygen is necessary for daily functioning, inhaled oxygen, delivered in a home environment, can be harmful to the human body. In the treatment of many respiratory diseases, specific cases are indicated that should not take medical oxygen, administered in this form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is inhalation oxygen?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Inhalation oxygen<\/a> is a medicinal product administered in gaseous form. It is intended for people who suffer from oxygen deficiency. In this form, oxygen has no odour or colour. In the case of cylinders, medical oxygen is maintained at a pressure of 200 bar. It is worth knowing that inhalation oxygen<\/strong>, like other medicines, has an expiry date. The use-by date is approximately one year from the date the package is sealed. After this date, a new product must be purchased.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oxygen concentrator<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Oxygen spray<\/strong> should be taken after careful consultation with a doctor. It can be administered using specialised equipment. An oxygen concentrator is now available and used on the market. This accumulates the gases that come from the environment and absorbs them, not including the oxygen. This is then supplied to the patient. An oxygen concentrator is indicated above all for diseases affecting the lungs. The most important point is that, irrespective of the type of illness, any dosage of medical oxygen must be prescribed by a doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How does medical oxygen work?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The main function of the gas in the form of inhalation oxygen is to stabilise the oxygen pressure in the tissues in the human body. When medical oxygen is dosed to the patient, the concentration of oxygen in the inspiratory mixture and in the alveoli increases. As a result of this phenomenon, oxygen in the arterial blood occurs more quickly and efficiently. The best results in oxygen therapy can be achieved when the arterial blood oxygen pressure is very low. The condition of patients with respiratory problems will visibly improve when the distribution of oxygen in the arterial blood is normal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hyperbaric oxygenation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Nowadays, there is also a solution on the market that proposes to treat the patient with oxygen using a special hyperbaric chamber that provides the appropriate pressure. When the patient is in the chamber, oxygen reaches a very large number of plasma red blood cells, the cerebrospinal system and lymphatic fluid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease as one of the indications for oxygen therapy<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Use of medical oxygen<\/strong> has the best effect in people who have normal oxygen consumption, with a reduction in venous blood pressure during respiration. The initiation of oxygen therapy under close supervision to restore the correct tissue pressure level is indicated above all in the presence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. In addition, medical oxygen<\/a> should be used by patients in whom carbon monoxide poisoning is suspected. Oxygen therapy is also indicated during the disease known as cystic fibrosis. A patient's respiratory arrest is another case where the use of oxygen from a cylinder<\/strong>. In addition, inhalation oxygen is indicated for patients suffering from:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
