   In 1912, Bornstein developed cramps in his hands and legs while breathing oxygen at 2.8 bar (280 kPa) for 51 minutes. [3] Smith then went on to show that intermittent exposure to a breathing gas with less oxygen permitted the lungs to recover and delayed the onset of pulmonary toxicity. [33]

4. Effect of oxygen on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effect_of_oxygen_on...

   Many people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease have a low partial pressure of oxygen in the blood and high partial pressure of carbon dioxide.Treatment with supplemental oxygen may improve their well-being; alternatively, in some this can lead to the adverse effect of elevating the carbon dioxide content in the blood (hypercapnia) to levels that may become toxic.

5. Hyperoxia - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperoxia

   Excessive exposure to oxygen can lead to oxygen toxicity, also known as oxygen toxicity syndrome, oxygen intoxication, and oxygen poisoning.There are two main ways in which oxygen toxicity can occur: exposure to significantly elevated partial pressures of oxygen for a short period of time (acute oxygen toxicity), or exposure to more modest elevations in oxygen partial pressures but for a ...

   The main components of flow-restricted, oxygen-powered ventilation devices include An inspiratory pressure safety release valve. A trigger or level positioned to allow both hands to remain on the mask to provide an airtight seal while supporting and tilting the patients head. A peak flow rate of 100% oxygen at up to 40 L/min.
