Oxygen Therapy For Asthma
Oxygen Therapy For Asthma
Asthma is an allergic disease, and its attacks are mostly seasonal. It starts in late summer and early
autumn every year, develops to a peak in mid-autumn, and slows down in the cold winter. All ages and
genders of this disease can suffer from it, and it is easy to recur, with an average prevalence rate of 2%.
There are often aura symptoms before the asthma attack, such as repeated coughing, chest tightness,
continuous sneezing, etc. If not treated in time, acute asthma may occur. Because the sputum is sticky
and difficult to cough up, patients are often forced to sit up. In severe cases, symptoms such as bruising
of lips and nails, cold limbs, sweating, and rapid heartbeat may occur. The onset time can vary from a
few minutes to several days. Asthma is a chronic disease that is prone to attacks, so asthmatics should
actively prevent it during the remission period.
Oxygen inhalation methods for bronchial asthma are the same as those for other chronic respiratory
systems. Clinically, oxygen inhalation methods mainly include nasal catheter oxygen inhalation, face
mask oxygen inhalation and simple respirator. Nasal cannula oxygen inhalation is more commonly used
and is suitable for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or asthma. Because the lungs of
patients with this disease are in a hyperinflated state, that is, the gas is overinflated in the airway, which
may be accompanied by carbon dioxide retention. If the patient is given oxygen inhalation through a
mask, the condition can be further aggravated. Therefore, it is recommended to use a nasal catheter to
inhale oxygen to reduce carbon dioxide retention and stimulate the brain. The center enables patients
to breathe effectively, relieves hypoxia, corrects carbon dioxide retention, and improves the acid-base
balance in the patient's body, which is beneficial to the treatment of patients.
For low-flow oxygen inhalation, the oxygen flow rate should be 1-3 liters, and the time should not be
too long. Also pay attention to keep the airway warm and moist to avoid excessive dryness and cold
stimulation to induce aggravation of asthma symptoms.
