Total Package Oxygen (TPO)

Total Package Oxygen (TPO) refers to the overall amount of oxygen delivered to the body during a medical procedure, often in the context of anesthesia or respiratory support. It considers both the oxygen supplied externally (such as through a mask or ventilator) and the oxygen within the patient's body at any given time. TPO helps healthcare providers assess oxygen availability and adequacy, ensuring the body's tissues receive enough oxygen for proper function. It is a vital parameter in managing and monitoring patients who require supplemental oxygen or respiratory support to prevent hypoxia.
