Ensure continuous oxygen supply, either as cylinders or oxygen concentrator, at all times.

Give oxygen to all children with oxygen saturation < 90%

<h3>What is Respiratory distress ?</h3>

The tiny, elastic air sacs (alveoli) in your lungs experience fluid buildup, which results in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Less oxygen enters your circulation because of the fluid's ability to prevent your lungs from filling with enough air. Your organs are deprived of the oxygen they require to function as a result.

  • When a person can't control gas exchange, they experience respiratory distress because they either breathe in too little oxygen or breathe out too little carbon dioxide. Following respiratory distress, respiratory failure results in increasingly serious problems with gas exchange. It might be lethal if left untreated.
