title: [Collective oxygen therapy and disaster medicine].
abstract: The distribution of oxygen to many victims can be necessary all along the medical help chain: operations of extraction, stand up, recovery, transport, life supporting care, surviving and transportation in mobile processing formations installed to proximity of the site, evacuations by road or by fly. Moreover, hospital in situation of crisis has an increased oxygen consumption (especially for ventilators). An estimable need calculation, a census of stocking and distribution ways have to allow to adapt resources to needs. Proposed solutions are the strengthening of vehicles in oxygen tanks, utilization of liquid oxygen tanks in large mobile formations and particular procedures to supply hospital crisis situation.
