Abstract

In home care, the use of oxygen therapy equipment is a determinant in the evolution of chronic patients who require its application. So far the education that users receive from professionals in charge of respiratory care regarding the use and its prescription in the home environment,  generates good results compared to control and follow-up with patients; however, when due to clinical and physical conditions it is time to withdraw oxygen supplies from the home, there is little clarity in the criteria for suspension and withdrawal of these equipment, generating insecurity in patients and health professionals regarding the timely withdrawal of oxygen equipment at home, as well as generating unnecessary costs to institutions providing health services, it also promotes the shortage of oxygen cylinders in situations that are objectively needed.
