Oxygen therapy has long been a cornerstone of hospice care, but its role in prolonging life at the end-of-life stage is a topic of ongoing debate.
Recent studies have shed new light on the nuanced relationship between oxygen and comfort for terminally ill patients.
One key consideration is that the body's need for oxygen can decrease as the disease progresses.
In some cases, providing supplemental oxygen may actually cause more distress, as the patient struggles to breathe against the pressure of the oxygen flow.
Careful monitoring and adjustment of oxygen levels is critical to ensure it is providing relief, not adding to the patient's burden. - https://nurseskillshub.com/blog/oxygen-prolong-life-hospice/?unique_id_l66fqreh
