Abstract

Long-term oxygen therapy (LTOT) is a treatment that involves the provision of supplemental oxygen to individuals with respiratory disease to correct hypoxemia in the post-acute care environment. Over 1.5 million adults in the United States use supplemental oxygen for various respiratory disorders. This paper explores literature published on LTOT from September 2022-September 2023. Upon the conclusion of this literature review, 4 distinct categories emerged. This paper highlights the significant findings associated with the 4 categories: supplemental oxygen and COVID-19, telemonitoring, LTOT equipment, and in-home high-flow nasal cannula.
