APPLICATIONS
Respiratory Support involves the medical use of oxygen to support or enhance breathing in patients with respiratory conditions or oxygen deficiency. It is used in hospitals, clinics, home care, and emergency medical services. The primary gas used is oxygen, delivered through masks, nasal cannulas, or ventilators to ensure adequate blood oxygenation. Air is often blended with pure oxygen to achieve the appropriate concentration for patient needs. Helium-oxygen mixtures (Heliox) are used in specific cases to reduce airway resistance in patients with conditions like asthma or COPD. These gases provide essential respiratory support, ensuring proper oxygen levels in the body.

Respiratory oxygen is high-purity oxygen used for medical and therapeutic purposes. It is administered to patients to treat or manage conditions that affect breathing and oxygen levels in the body.
Respiratory oxygen is commonly used to treat conditions such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, pneumonia, cystic fibrosis, heart failure, and during surgeries or medical emergencies where oxygen levels are compromised.
Respiratory oxygen can be administered through various devices, including nasal cannulas, face masks, oxygen tents, and ventilators. The method of administration depends on the patient’s needs and the severity of their condition.
The benefits of using respiratory oxygen include improved oxygenation of tissues and organs, relief from symptoms of hypoxia (low oxygen levels), enhanced physical performance, and support for critical care and surgical procedures.
Medical-grade oxygen must have a purity level of at least 99.5%. This high level of purity ensures that the oxygen is safe for inhalation and free from contaminants that could harm patients.
Respiratory oxygen is typically produced through air separation processes such as cryogenic distillation or pressure swing adsorption (PSA). It is stored in high-pressure cylinders, liquid oxygen tanks, or generated on-site using oxygen concentrators.
Safety measures include proper handling and storage of oxygen cylinders, avoiding open flames or smoking near oxygen sources, using appropriate medical devices, and ensuring adequate ventilation to prevent oxygen buildup in enclosed spaces.
The quality of respiratory oxygen is ensured through strict regulatory standards, regular testing, and certification by medical gas suppliers. Compliance with guidelines set by organizations such as the U.S. Pharmacopeia (USP) and European Pharmacopoeia (Ph. Eur.) is mandatory.
