SunstarTV Bureau: The Odisha Government on Tuesday asked district administrations and hospital authorities take utmost care for its rational use.
“Oxygen is precious and we may face acute shortage if not managed properly, rationally and judiciously.
Also, timely use of oxygen can reduce mortality as well as morbidity to a large extent,” additional chief secretary (health) Pradipta Kumar Mohapatra wrote.
An SOP circulated on Tuesday mentioned that the flow of oxygen should be adjusted to the lowest permissible level to target an oxygen saturation of 92% to 94%.
