[A trial of long-term home oxygen therapy in Romania (preliminary study)].
The study followed up the reliability of some French oxygen extractors of BRIOX type (Pierre Médical) and the advantages of long course oxygen therapy at home in chronic respiratory failure subjects. The study extended to a 6-8 months period on 4 subjects suffering from chronic obstructive lung disease dependent on oxygen with PaO2 of 55-60 mmHg which were given 2-2.5 l/min O2 during 15 hours/day. The favorable evolution and the difficulties met confirmed the efficacy and advantages of the method.
