Description: Oxygen is essential for our survival and is a powerful medical drug. Treatment with oxygen increases blood oxygen levels and helps to reduce cardiovascular workload. In this podcast, Dr Roger Henderson looks at how oxygen can be given in a home environment, the reasons it may be required and the different types of delivery systems available. He also looks at practical issues such as flying when requiring oxygen, smoking near oxygen supplies, how to arrange an emergency supply of oxygen for home use and which types of masks and nasal cannulae to use.
