Oxygen is a medical gas essential for cellular metabolism, widely used for the treatment of hypoxemia and hypoxia in medical conditions such as acute respiratory distress, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and during anesthesia and resuscitation. It is approved and in standard use in modern medicine.
Pharmacokinetic parameters for inhaled medicinal oxygen in healthy adult volunteers, not reported in any peer-reviewed pharmacokinetic model publications. Information is estimated based on physiological properties of oxygen transport and general gas pharmacokinetics.
