Oxygen therapy

Oxygen therapy is the administration of oxygen as a medical intervention, which can be for a variety of purposes in both chronic and acute patient care. Normal air is composed of 20.95% oxygen by volume; it is essential for cell metabolism, and in turn, tissue oxygenation is essential for all normal physiological functions.

High blood and tissue levels of oxygen can be helpful or damaging, depending on circumstances. Oxygen therapy is used when low blood oxygen is present. Oxygen may be administered in various ways from a nasal cannula to hyperbaric oxygen inside a closed chamber.
