The risk of explosion may be minimized by elemental precautions. Chronic oxygen therapy does not significantly increase PaC0 2, nor have tissue lesions attibutable to this treatment been recognized. No risks related with the chronic administration of oxygen have been demonstrated in stable patients. The risks of the acute administration of oxygen refer to early secondary effects such as hypercapnia or atelectasis by absorption and to tissue damage as in pulmonary cytotoxicity or retinopathy of premature newborns. El uso de humidificadores no está justificado en la mayoría de pacientes, siendo además otra fuente de fugas.Įl catéter transtraqueal (CTT) es una forma invasiva de administrar oxígeno muy eficaz pero que plantea problemas en el momento de la insercisón (enfisema subcutáneo, hematoma, broncoespasmo), o a largo plazo (tapones de moco alrededor del CTT o las infecciones locales). Pueden producirse fugas en los tubos acodados o con múltiples conexiones. Los accesorios utilizados para recibir oxígeno pueden producir irritación local, especialmente si se administran flujos elevados. El riesgo de explosión puede minimizarse con unas precauciones elementales.Įl mal funcionamiento de las fuentes de oxígeno pueden condicionar la efectividad del tratamiento, especialmente en el caso del concentrador si no se somete a revisiones periódicas. La oxigenoterapia crónica no incrementa significativamente la PaC0 2 ni se reconocen lesiones tisulares atribuibles al tratamiento. No se han demostrado riesgos relacionados con la administración crónica de oxígeno en pacientes estables.
Los riesgos de la administración aguda de oxígeno se refieren a los efectos secundarios precoces, como la hipercapnia o las atelectasias por absorción y al daño tisular, como la citotoxicidad pulmonar o la retinopatía de los prematuros. The Journal expresses the voice of the Spanish Respiratory Society of Pulmonology and Thoracic Surgery (SEPAR) as well as that of other scientific societies such as the Latin American Thoracic Society (ALAT) and the Iberian American Association of Thoracic Surgery (AICT).Īuthors are also welcome to submit their articles to the Journal's open access companion title, Open Respiratory Archives.

The Journal is published monthly in English.
It is a monthly Journal that publishes a total of 12 issues and a few supplements, which contain articles belonging to the different sections.Īll the manuscripts received in the Journal are evaluated by the Editors and sent to expert peer-review while handled by the Editor and/or an Associate Editor from the team. Other types of articles such as reviews, editorials, a few special articles of interest to the society and the editorial board, scientific letters, letters to the Editor, and clinical images are also published in the Journal. Archivos de Bronconeumologia is a scientific journal that preferentially publishes prospective original research articles whose content is based upon results dealing with several aspects of respiratory diseases such as epidemiology, pathophysiology, clinics, surgery, and basic investigation.
