Why Long-Term Oxygen Therapy Needs a Scientific Reset: 👉 Implementation of oxygen therapy guidelines is lagging behind. In this episode of Lung Health Champion, Dr. Joao de Andrade (Vanderbilt), Dr. Sanjay Sethi (UB Jacobs School of Medicine & Biomedical Sciences), and Susan Jacobs, RN, MS (Stanford) examine long-term oxygen therapy (LTOT) and its place in respiratory research and clinical practice. The panel explores: 🔸Why much of the evidence supporting LTOT is decades old, and where critical research gaps remain. 🔸How inconsistent prescribing, limited reassessment, equipment burdens, and access to high-flow oxygen can affect care. 🔸Opportunities to improve oxygen delivery technology, and establish clearer measures of benefit. What will it take to reframe oxygen therapy? 🎧 Subscribe and listen to the full episode for insights from leading voices in respiratory care: lunghealthchampion.com This episode is proudly supported by Inogen. https://copdf.co/Inogen
