Chronic obstructive pneumonia (Pneumonia Retardation) is a common chronic respiratory disease that seriously affects the quality of life of patients.
For many patients with slow lungs, home oxygen therapy is a very important assistive treatment, and let’s go over it.
What’s home oxygen therapy, home oxygen therapy, is, in short, an oxygen-absorption device in the patient’s home to improve the body’s oxygen deficiency. Pneumatic disorders in the pulmonary aerobics have resulted in the loss of a smooth flow of oxygen into the blood and a prolonged period of relative oxygen deficiency in the various organs of the body, while home-based oxygen therapy, like “refuelling” of the body in a timely manner, can alleviate the discomfort caused by this deficiency, improve the quality of life and to some extent slow the development of the disease.
The application of home oxygen therapy is generally recommended by doctors when a patient with a slow lung is: For example, when the patient sits or lies silently, the arterial oxygen pressure is below 55mmHg, or the blood oxygen saturation is less than 88%; or although the arterial oxygen pressure is between 55 – 60mmHg, the patient has already experienced complications such as pulmonary arterial pressure, right heart failure, or red cell amplification, which are necessary at these times.
Mr. Lee, who I know, is a slow-retarded lung patient, who usually comes a few steps away from his breath and his lips are always purple, and he goes to the hospital, and he finds that he’s only about 85 percent saturated in a static state. The doctor advised him to go home and perform home-based oxygen therapy, and since then, Master Li has insisted on taking oxygen as prescribed by the doctor, feeling less easy to breathe and much better in mental health than before.
The equipment for home oxygen therapy is the choice of commonly used home oxygen therapy equipment with oxygen cylinders and oxygen machines. Oxygen cylinders have the advantage of having high oxygen concentrations, meeting medical standards, suitable for short-term oxygen demand or for use without electricity. However, it requires regular aerobic refilling, which is relatively inconvenient, and there is a certain security risk, which needs to be properly located and secured. Aerobics are easier to produce, with access to the power source, and there are many reliable, simple-operated oxygen machines available on the market.
It can also regulate the flow of oxygen as required and be used more flexibly. However, care must be taken to select products that are officially produced and certified for medical devices, in order to ensure the quality and safety of oxygen use. The specific operation and care of home-based oxygen therapy is to choose a comfortable, quiet and well-ventilated environment. When aerobics is used, the appropriate oxygen flow is regulated in accordance with the instructions or doctor ‘ s guidance. Generally, the oxygen flow that is commonly used by patients with slow lungs is 1 – 2 litres/minute, and it is important not to raise the flow at will, which could result in adverse consequences such as carbon dioxide retention. Every time oxygen is used, it is usually recommended that it is not less than 15 hours per day, in order to continue to improve the body’s oxygen deficiency. Inter-sorption of oxygen, such as a few hours in the morning and a few hours in the afternoon, could be used, depending on the circumstances.
In addition, oxygen-absorption equipment is regularly cleaned and maintained, and filters such as oxygen-producing machines are cleaned on time to ensure their proper functioning and to produce clean oxygen. It is also necessary to go to the hospital on a regular basis to allow the doctor to assess the effects of the Oxygen treatment on the basis of, inter alia, haematological oxygen, and to see whether the Oxygen programme needs to be adjusted. In short, home-based oxygen therapy is an important and effective treatment for patients with slow-to-pulmonary resistance, which can be better able to help them improve their lives and alleviate the suffering caused by the disease, provided that the equipment is correctly selected, it is regulated and it is taken care of.
