[Effectiveness of oxygen therapy for pulmonary edema in patients with hypertensive crisis before hospitalization].
The oxygen therapy, involving the KI-3M respiratory apparatus administered in the positive pressure regimen on expiration (8-10 cm aq. c.), used, before hospitalization, within the complex therapy of patients with pulmonary edema triggered by hypertensive crisis arrests fast enough the pulmonary edema, cuts the working time of an ER crew and promotes the ER efficiency. The key clinical manifestations of pulmonary edema were found to begin to go down on minutes 5 to 10 after the administration of artificial lungs ventilation (ALV) by oxygen with the positive pressure being on expiration end; such signs were totally stopped in 20-25 minutes.
