If you suffer from asthma, especially severe asthma attacks, then using pure oxygen during an attack can have real benefits. In severe cases, the use of pure oxygen could save your life.
During an asthma attack, the body is deprived of oxygen. The body's vital organs, including the heart and the brain, simply cannot work properly due to oxygen starvation. In severe cases, and particularly in children, this can lead to death. The British Medical Journal states 'an inadequate supply of oxygen was an important cause of death in those who died following a severe [asthma] attack'.
It is also widely accepted that stress increases the occurrence of asthma attacks and that reducing stress reduces attacks. Patients with a supply of pure oxygen closeby, have displayed lower stress levels knowing they can get oxygen into their body during attack.
