Oxygen Therapy Treatment Procedure
Oxygen Therapy Treatment in Begur
If the blood has insufficient oxygen, the patient may require supplementary oxygen. Several devices give oxygen to the lungs, including lightweight, portable devices that the patient may carry while the patient does day-to-day activities.
Some patients utilise supplemental oxygen during activities or while sleeping. Others use it regularly. Oxygen treatment can enhance the quality of life. Treatments typically take two hours and are provided once every day. The number and frequency of treatments vary depending on the medical condition for which the patient is being treated.
Thoracentesis
Thoracentesis is a treatment that removes excess fluid from the pleural space to make it easier to breathe.
-
Unless the patient has a lot of fluid in the pleural region, the treatment takes 10 to 15 minutes.
-
The doctor injects numbing drugs after cleansing the skin surrounding the place where the needle is injected. A needle is put into the pleural area between the ribs.
-
The patient may feel coughing or chest discomfort when the doctor removes extra fluid from around the lungs. The needle is removed and the affected area is bandaged.
After the pulmonology treatments in Begur, the fluid extracted from the chest will be delivered to a laboratory for testing to identify why the patient has excess fluid in the pleural space, known as pleural effusion and to assist the therapy. A chest X-ray is done to rule out any lung abnormalities. Book an appointment at the best oxygen therapy treatment hospital in Begur.
