oxygen

No summary available for this substance.

Oxygen

Oxygen is an essential element required for the survival and well-being of all aerobic organisms. It is used in cellular respiration, a metabolic process that breaks down food molecules to produce ATP, the major energy currency of cells. Supplemental oxygen is used in medical treatments for conditions that cause low oxygen levels in the blood.

Category
Medical Gas
Molecular Formula
O2
Mechanism of Action
Oxygen is used in the production of cellular ATP via the process of oxidative phosphorylation in the mitochondria. Supplemental oxygen increases the concentration of oxygen in the blood, aiding in oxygen delivery to tissues.
Evidence Grade
A

Other Names

  • O2
  • Molecular Oxygen
  • Dioxygen

Primary Benefits

  • Improves oxygen saturation in blood
  • Helps in treating hypoxia and hypoxemia
  • Aids in cellular respiration

Recommended Dosage

Form Inhalation
Amount As directed by healthcare provider
Frequency Depends on individual's health condition

Side Effects

  • Dry or bloody nose
  • Fatigue
  • Shortness of breath
  • Chest discomfort

Precautions

  • Avoid use near open flames or flammable substances as oxygen supports combustion
  • Avoid if patient has certain lung diseases like COPD, without doctor's advice

Interactions

  • Certain sedatives and opioids can decrease respiratory drive, reducing effectiveness of supplemental oxygen

“if you don't exercise if you don't make sure that your heart is pumping at a high rate regularly during the week those tiny vessels that are even smaller than your air in terms of diameter they will start to collapse and you don't have and remember the capillaries it's it represents 90 percent of your brain vasculature all these tiny blood vessels so if you start not see if you don't do enough exercise you will start chronically to have some vessels that will basically constrict and collapse and disappear meaning that the surrounding neurons that are here and they need oxygen and nutrients and everything from these vessels if these vessels disappear you're going to lose neurons right”

“after a good weight training session if one has the luxury of doing it get into the sauna for up to 30 minutes make sure you're hydrating you want slow rehydration because part of it is that dehydration and the decrease of oxygen at the level of the kidney to stimulate more EPO so with more red cell production you have natural increase in plasma volume so it's a blood volume expander”

“Methylene blue when we talk about the mitochondria using that mitochondrial membrane binds to cytochrome C oxidase and I think of it you know traditionally it's used when people have carbon Bon oxide poisoning they'll still use it you go in emergency your carbon monoxide poison it'll give you methylene blue and it helps your red blood cells displace the the carbon monoxide and put oxygen there and so you're it's an oxygenator.”
