Oxygen is vital for our life. In hospitals, the medical team should also have knowledge of its generation and how it ends till it is ready for consumption at the patient end. Various oxygen generation plants like pressure swing adsorption (PSA) plants, Liquid medical oxygen plant are available at every medical institute but basic technical knowledge holds importance. Medical gas pipeline system is a well designed network spread through out the hospitals which boost life in the patients but utmost handling and care of these necessitates regular check and audits to that every point of the system provides maximum usage with minimum leakage. (Provide appropriate messages of about 35-50 words to be printed in centre box): Oxygen is the very basis for survival of the patients. Careful planning and knowledge is the essential requirement. Why is it important is well known, but how and whats of the oxygen generation plants is the need of the hour.

“…Aluminum cylinders are moderately priced, light weight, and can be manufactured to be safe in magnetic resonance imaging environment. [ 5 6 7 8 ] Recently, light-weight carbon fiber-wrapped cylinders with built-in regulator have become available, which eliminates the need for costly purchase and maintenance of a separate population of regulators. [ 5 ] The cylinder content present in this state (compressed gas) does not change into a liquid at room temperature, regardless of the pressure applied, since the room temperature is above the critical temperature of gas.…”

Medical oxygen is an essential medicine as is aptly stated by the World Health Organization. With the advent of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and with increased lung involvement, oxygen has become a precious life-saving drug. With more than 200 million cases worldwide, this pandemic has put tremendous pressure on scarce healthcare resources. In a step toward our readiness for further COVID-19 waves, we would like to bring forth the information regarding oxygen supply in the hospitals. We searched various published literature in journals and books, as well as scientific databases, including PubMed Central, Google Scholar, National Medical Library, and Medline, using search terms as “oxygen sources,” “oxygen supply,” and “hospitals.” The relevant articles published during the period of 1990–2021 and in the English language were selected. This article is an attempt to enrich the readers in further strengthening the oxygen supplies in hospitals during such pandemics and other natural disasters.
