ABSTRACT
The aim of respiratory support is to provide adequate ventilation and oxygenation. Oxygen therapy, one of the most commonly used treatment modalities in respiratory failure caused by the deterioration of this condition, is performed with different methods and for different durations. There are critical points in oxygen therapy initiation, maintenance, and follow-up. Among the points to be considered, inspiratory and expiratory monitoring are especially effective in guiding the process. During the oxygen therapy process, monitoring the patient’s vital signs significantly shapes the course of treatment. Increasing evidence-based studies to follow current guidelines on this subject will reduce the risk of complications that may develop and improve the quality of care.
