Abstract
Administration of low concentrations of oxygen has become a widely accepted method of treating respiratory failure secondary to CORD. The immediate goal of this form of therapy is to minimize the danger of hypoxia. Supportive measures are aimed at improving oxygen delivery and reducing oxygen demands.Keywords
