Oxygen therapy is given in three different ways in the home, long-term (LTOT), short burst and portable oxygen. Cost effective oxygen therapy depends upon appreciation of the indications for each form of administration, the nature of the disease causing oxygen deficiency, the most suitable oxygen source and careful monitoring of the therapeutic response. The many problems remaining in these areas are reviewed here.
在家中，氧疗有三种不同的方式：长期家庭氧疗（LTOT）、短期吸氧和便携式吸氧。具有成本效益的氧疗取决于对每种给药方式的适应症、导致缺氧的疾病性质、最合适的氧源的认识以及对治疗反应的仔细监测。本文将对这些领域中仍然存在的诸多问题进行综述。
