Quality of life with COPD: is it possible to live well
It is very important to establish good habits of life:
-
Keep eating healthy
-
Practice physical exercises
-
Have a good night's sleep
Home oxygen therapy
If blood oxygen levels are low, it may be necessary to administer oxygen from an external source. This is what happens to most patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD).
There are different alternatives that will allow you to continue maintaining your quality of life with COPD:
- Stationary oxygen concentrator
- Portable oxygen concentrator
Your doctor will tell you the most suitable option and how many hours to use it.
Later, VitalAire will be able to install it in your home, explaining its operation and providing support and attention throughout the process.
Adapting the use of oxygen in COPD
VitalAire's commitment to patient quality of life
Together with healthcare professionals, VitalAire teams, an activity of Air Liquide Healthcare, help to develop and facilitate home care for patients with severe COPD who need respiratory assistance.
The main objective of this care is to improve the quality of life!
Care for the patient with COPD
Following the physician's prescription, the home care provider provides patients with COPD associated with respiratory failure with oxygen therapy and/or ventilation tailored to their needs. It works with the patient to prevent exacerbations and control the progression of COPD for a better quality of life.
