There is no "normal" oxygen level in COPD. Anything below 90% would be seen and COPD.
at 70 percent via respirator

The condition is called emphysema (literally, swelling). The condition is part of COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) and results from the destruction of the supporting structures of the lung. This prevents the normal exchange of oxygen in the alveoli. Smoking introduces tar residue into the lungs that causes significant tissue damage.
Although the outcome depends of the severity of the smoke inhalation and.any accompanying.injuries, with prompt medical treatment,the prognosis for recovery is good. some patients may experience chronic pulmonary problems following smoke inhalation.
Pulmonary disease pattern
Pulmonary vascular means that the blood vessels in the heart and lung region looks normal and no problems were found. If something was found then it is possible to have pulmonary vascular disease.
For a normal healthy person a 1:2 or 1:1.5 Inspiratory to Expiratory ratio is expected. Person's with obstructive pulmonary disease processes (COPD, active Asthma reaction) may have a prolonged exhalation 1:3, 1:4 etc. Pulmonary Fibrosis (stiff lung) and damage to certain nueral receptors can cause prolonged inspiration. I/E ratios are manipulated with intubated ventilated patients to achieve a variety of outcomes. Cheers!
Chronic atrophic gastritis
no, Pelvic inflammatory disease in not life threatening.
the two main characteristics of normal lung tissue that may be affected in diseased individuals are either Compliance or Elasticity. compliance is the characteristic of lung tissue that allows it to expand elasticity is the characteristic of lung tissue that allows it go back to its former shape and size. elasticity is usually affected in chronic obstructive conditions like emphysema compliance is usually affected in restrictive lung dysfunctions like pulmonary fibrosis.
Hemoglobin levelscan rise above the normal range, and it can be indicative of a number of disorders, such as congenital heart disease, pulmonary fibrosis, or an increase level of erythopoietin.
No.
Compressed Gaseous Oxygen (Medical Grade) is used for treatment of Hypoxia or Hypoxemia, where levels of oxygen in the blood are below normal or life-threatening. Many conditions, such as Asthma, Bronchitis, Pulmonary Edema, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), can benefit from supplemental oxygen therapy. Hyperbaric Oxygen treament, where a patient is placed in a pressurized chamber to drive oxygen deeper into the tissues, is used to treat things such as certain non-healing wounds, decompression sickness (the bends), carbon monoxide poisoning, air or gas embolism, necrotizing fasciitis (flesh-eating bacterial infection) and radiation related osteo-necrosis.
