Показання до тривалої оксигенотерапії при ХОЗЛ

PaO2 55 mm Hg or SaO2 88%* in patients receiving optimal medical regimen for at least 30 days†

PaO2 = 55 to 59 mm Hg or SaO2 89%* for patients with cor pulmonale or erythrocytosis (> 55%)

Can be considered for patients with exercise desaturation or severe dyspnea if there is symptomatic improvement; however, there is no improvement in survival or hospitalization. May also be considered for patients with nocturnal desaturation.‡

* Arterial oxygen levels are measured at rest during air breathing.

† Patients who are recovering from an acute respiratory illness and who meet the listed criteria should be given oxygen and rechecked while breathing room air after 60 to 90 days.

Hct = hematocrit; PaO2 = arterial oxygen partial pressure; SaO2 = oxygen saturation.
