Low-flow oxygen therapy

Low-flow oxygen therapy is a medical treatment that provides supplemental oxygen to individuals who have difficulty breathing or low oxygen levels in their blood. It involves delivering a small amount of oxygen through devices like nasal cannulas or face masks. This therapy helps increase the amount of oxygen a person inhales without overwhelming the respiratory system. It’s often used for patients with conditions such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), or pneumonia. The goal is to improve oxygenation, reduce symptoms like shortness of breath, and support overall respiratory health.
