Biden Administration Carefully Monitors Oxygen Delivery To Covid-19 Patients

Over the weekend, CNN reported that hospitals in Florida, South Carolina, Texas, and Louisiana were experiencing oxygen shortages, with some hospitals potentially running out of oxygen soon. At least one hospital organization indicated it was seeking federal assistance.

According to Donna Craft, senior director of buildings and construction at Premier, a health care performance improvement firm, as Covid has evolved, we have seen Covid care best practices develop. Unlike ventilators, medical-grade oxygen is not kept in the SNS. The increase of Covid-19 cases had increased oxygen demand, which hospitals cannot provide.

Normally, an oxygen tank would be approximately 90% filled, and the suppliers would let them replenish it to 30-40%, providing them with a three- to five-day supply cushion. Before becoming back Full, hospitals currently have a 10-20% supply or a one or two-day supply.

Chicago churches connected to 180 Covid-19 cases, five hospitalizations. The Compressed Gas Association is redistributing products from the industrial sector to the health care sector to alleviate the issue. In addition, several big suppliers transport goods from other locations to meet strong demand. While this was a temporary remedy, one state health official expressed worry that the change might cause shortages in other areas if caseloads increased.

Restaurants, welders, and manufacturing facilities were shuttered during the first wave of Covid-19, enabling hospitals to access the bulk of the country’s oxygen supply.

Oxygen shortages, driver shortages, and restrictions on how long drivers may be on the road transporting hazardous materials have put hospitals in several states, including those with the greatest number of new coronavirus infections, in a bind. In Florida, traveling across the state takes hours, and reaching isolated regions with just one entry and exit hampers distribution.

In a statement by Mayhew, he says that in the recent weeks, there have been difficult circumstances, with hospitals experiencing hours-long delays in oxygen delivery, resulting in low oxygen supplies. Several facilities have less than 48 hours of oxygen. Mayhew said that although the situation seemed to be improving Saturday, several concerns remained:

 Hospitals are utilizing 3-4 times the usual quantity of oxygen. This is a life-sustaining supply, and hospitals utilize oxygen 24/7. Even as our Covid hospitalizations start to decline, this may create supply issues in Florida.

Premier has contacted government authorities such as the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the US Department of Health and Human Services on behalf of its network’s ailing hospitals.

Craft continues to say that it is a dire scenario, adding that her oxygen providers had requested assistance. A health official working with states and federal agencies told CNN that a coordinated approach is required to fight Coronavirus in the States.
