Hypoxia and Oxygen Therapy

Oxygen therapy and non-invasive ventilation (NIV) are critical treatments for patients with respiratory issues. Oxygen therapy involves delivering supplemental oxygen to those with low blood oxygen levels due to conditions like COPD or pneumonia. Non-invasive ventilation, such as CPAP or BiPAP, supports breathing without the need for intubation, using a mask to provide pressurized air. NIV helps maintain airway pressure, improving oxygenation and reducing the work of breathing. Both therapies are less invasive options that can stabilize patients and improve outcomes, often preventing the need for more aggressive interventions like mechanical ventilation
