If a resident is on 2 liters of O2 for COPD how often would the resident use their O2?
A resident on 2 liters of oxygen for COPD would typically use their oxygen continuously, especially if they experience difficulty breathing or have low oxygen saturation levels. The healthcare provider may recommend using it at all times or during specific activities that may exacerbate their condition, such as physical exertion. It's essential for the resident to follow their doctor's instructions regarding the duration and frequency of oxygen use. Regular monitoring of oxygen saturation levels will help determine if adjustments are needed.
