Many persons with lung disease require the use of supplemental low-flow oxygen, which has been shown to reduce the physiological effects of hypoxemia, increase exercise tolerance, and improve t he user's sense of well-being. This article discusses three systems used for long-term delivery of oxygen, the financial considerations of these systems, and developments in the new technology of oxygen-conserving devices, which may decrease oxygen consumption and costs while providing increased comfort and mobility for users.
许多肺部疾病患者需要使用低流量补充氧气,已证明这种氧气可减轻低氧血症的生理影响、提高运动耐力并改善使用者的幸福感。本文讨论了用于长期输氧的三种系统、这些系统的财务考量以及氧气节约设备新技术的发展,这些新技术可在为使用者提供更高舒适度和移动性的同时减少氧气消耗和成本。
