Oxygen support of the patient during transportation
Oxygen support during the transportation of patients is an extremely important component of medical transport. It provides patients with additional access to oxygen, which can be critical to their condition and well-being during transport.
When Oxygen Support is Needed
- Patients with Chronic Lung Disease: People with conditions such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, or pulmonary fibrosis may have limited lung function and need supplemental oxygen to breathe normally.
- Patients with Heart Problems: People with heart conditions, such as heart failure or angina, may suffer from insufficient oxygen, especially during times of stress or physical exertion.
- Pneumonia and Other Infectious Diseases: Patients with infectious lung diseases such as pneumonia or bronchitis may experience a lack of oxygen and need support.
- Trauma and Burn Patients: People who have suffered traumatic injuries, such as burns or head injuries, may have respiratory complications and require oxygen support.
- Patients with Kidney Disease: Hemodialysis patients who require regular blood purification may also require oxygen support during transport.
- Acetonemic Children: Children with acetonemic conditions may suffer attacks during which oxygen support may be necessary to improve their condition.
- Patients with Pressure Imbalance: Patients with arterial hypotension (low blood pressure) may experience deterioration during transport and oxygen support may be necessary.
When choosing oxygen support during transport, it is important to consider the individual needs and condition of each patient. This means that the medical staff must have access to the necessary equipment, which includes medical oxygen cylinders, humidifying flasks, portable ventilators (artificial lung ventilation) and other devices for measuring the patient’s health indicators. It is also important to be able to check blood oxygen levels (saturation) and other parameters during transport to ensure the safety and effectiveness of oxygen support.
All these aspects make it possible to provide reliable and safe oxygen support during the transportation of a patient with various medical needs.
