Treatment to address and prevent hypoxia by increasing oxygen supply.

A condition of insufficient oxygen supply to tissues and organs.

Conditions that warrant the use of oxygen therapy, like PaO2 < 60 mmHg.

Partial pressure of oxygen in arterial blood; normal is 80-95 mmHg.

A device delivering 24%-44% oxygen; low flow and comfortable.

A mask delivering 40%-60% oxygen; used for moderate needs.

Delivers 50%-75% oxygen using a reservoir bag to stabilize patients quickly.

Situations where oxygen therapy should be used cautiously, like chronic hypercapnia.

A low flow delivery device providing 90% oxygen at 10 L/min with one-way valves to prevent CO2 rebreathing.

A high flow delivery device providing 24%-60% oxygen at 2-15 L/min, known for its accurate oxygen concentration.

A high flow device that delivers humidified oxygen for patients with thick secretions or upper airway issues.

High flow device that delivers humidified oxygen to tracheostomy patients.

Used for weaning patients from a ventilator while they still have an endotracheal tube.

High flow delivery device for patients with facial trauma, burns, or upper airway surgery.

Delivers heated and humidified air up to 60 L/min using specialized equipment.

A highly contagious upper respiratory infection that spreads rapidly between people.

The process of creating small droplets through sneezing or coughing that can transmit influenza.

Rapid onset of fever, headache, sore throat, nasal congestion, cough, muscle aches, and fatigue.

Common method to quickly diagnose influenza using respiratory secretions.

Includes annual vaccination, handwashing, cough etiquette, and antiviral meds in severe cases.

Includes immunocompromised individuals, elderly, and those with chronic respiratory diseases.

Key symptoms include fever, cough, breathlessness, chest pain, and fatigue.

Individuals with immunocompromised state, such as those with HIV/AIDS, are at higher risk.

Common symptoms include fatigue, weight loss, night sweats, and can be asymptomatic.

Characterized by airway inflammation leading to bronchospasm triggered by different factors.

Signs include dyspnea, coughing, wheezing, and increased respiratory rate.

A life-threatening situation with rapid onset, severe asthma and risk of respiratory failure.

Includes chronic bronchitis and emphysema, causing airflow obstruction and breathing difficulties.

Long-term inflammation of bronchi, leading to excessive mucus production and cough.

Symptoms include chronic low oxygen saturation, shortness of breath, productive cough, and barrel chest.

Focus on deep breathing exercises, hydration, high-protein meals, and aspiration precautions.

Main factors causing respiratory problems include smoking, pollution, and infections.

A cough that lasts at least 3 months over 2 years with mucus production.

Methods used to diagnose lung diseases include X-rays and pulmonary tests.

Serious issues that can arise include respiratory failure and heart problems.

Measures include avoiding smoking and vaccinations against infections.
