Pay attention to the importance of oxygen therapy for bronchial asthma

📢Overview of Bronchial Asthma

🎈Bronchial asthma, referred to as asthma, is a chronic airway inflammatory disease characterized by airway hyperresponsiveness and reversible airflow limitation. Symptoms of asthma include paroxysmal wheezing, shortness of breath, chest tightness and cough. These symptoms may be more obvious at night or in the early morning, and in severe cases may lead to acute respiratory failure.

Classification of Bronchial Asthma⁉️

🎈Bronchial asthma can be divided into many types according to different triggering factors and clinical manifestations, including allergic asthma, infectious asthma, exercise-induced asthma, drug-induced asthma, occupational asthma, cardiac asthma, psychogenic asthma and certain special types of asthma. In addition, there are atypical asthma, such as cough variant asthma and chest tightness variant asthma.

Causes of Bronchial Asthma⁉️

🎈The causes of bronchial asthma may involve genetic factors, allergic reactions, occupational factors, infections, environmental pollution, dietary factors, etc. Genetic factors determine the patient's susceptibility to the disease, while environmental factors are specific triggers

📢📢Oxygen therapy📢📢📢

👩‍⚕️Oxygen concentrators plays an important role in the management of bronchial asthma, especially during acute attacks.

✅ Patients with bronchial asthma may experience airway narrowing and spasm during acute attacks, leading to impaired oxygen exchange and hypoxia. Oxygen inhalation can increase the oxygen concentration in the blood and relieve bronchial contraction and spasm, thereby alleviating the symptoms of chest tightness and wheezing.

✅ During acute attacks, if the patient has severe symptoms of hypoxia, such as cyanosis of the lips, oxygen therapy is recommended. Oxygen inhalation can be performed through nasal cannula, mask or high-flow oxygen inhalation equipment, depending on the patient's degree of hypoxia and the stability of the condition.

👩‍⚕️ It should be noted that oxygen therapy should be performed under the guidance of a doctor to ensure the correct oxygen concentration and treatment time to avoid potential risks of oxygen poisoning. In addition, oxygen therapy is often combined with other drug treatments, such as inhaled corticosteroids and bronchodilators, to fully control asthma symptoms.

👩‍⚕️Oxygen inhalation is an effective means of treating bronchial asthma, especially during acute attacks, which can significantly improve the patient's hypoxia and symptoms. However, oxygen therapy should be strictly carried out according to the doctor's instructions to ensure safety and effectiveness.
