World Population Lacks Access To Medical Oxygen \u2014 Study"},"content":{"rendered":"<p><\/p>\n<div>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A new report by The Lancet Global Health Commission on Medical Oxygen Security has found that six out of every 10 people in the world lack access to safe, quality, affordable medical oxygen, stressing that the shortage is contributing to hundreds of thousands of preventable deaths annually and diminishing the quality of life for millions.<\/p>\n<p>The report, titled \u201cReducing Global Inequities in Medical Oxygen Access,\u201d is the first to quantify the inequities in global oxygen access and the costs associated with closing the gaps.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"td-adspot-title\">Advertisement<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The report outlined the actionable recommendations for governments, industry, global health agencies, academic institutions, and civil society to ensure universal access to medical oxygen.<\/p>\n<p>The report also noted that medical oxygen is a highly cost-effective investment in global health, adding that it will not only accelerate progress toward the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for health by 2030 but will also strengthen pandemic preparedness.<\/p>\n<p>According to the key findings of the Commission, under the global inequity in access, the report highlighted that 5 billion people, o r 60 per cent of the world\u2019s population, do not currently have access to safe, quality, affordable medical oxygen.<\/p>\n<p>It noted that the disparity is most pronounced in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), where the need is most urgent.<\/p>\n<p>According to report, \u201cHigh Global Demand, Particularly in LMICs: Each year, \u201c374 million newborns, children, and adults need medical oxygen,\u201d including 364 million with acute medical and surgical conditions, and 9 million with long-term needs due to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).<\/p>\n<p>The Commission emphasised that \u201c82 per cent of these patients live in LMICs,\u201d with the greatest concentrations in South Asia, East Asia and the Pacific, and Sub-Saharan Africa.<\/p>\n<p>The report stressed that \u201cless than one in three people (30 per cent) in LMICs who need oxygen for acute medical or surgical conditions receive it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCoverage gaps are particularly severe in Sub-Saharan Africa (91 per cent) and South Asia (78 per cent) \u201cThese oxygen coverage gaps far exceed those for HIV\/AIDS (23 per cent) and tuberculosis (25 per cent) treatment.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On limited availability of equipment: it found that:\u00a0 \u201cPulse oximeters and oxygen therapy are available in just 54 per cent and 58 per cent of general hospitals in LMICs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn rural health facilities, access is practically nonexistent,\u201d leaving the most vulnerable populations without critical care.<\/p>\n<p>The report also notes that \u201c93 per cent of primary healthcare facilities, 45 per cent of general hospitals, and 25 per cent of tertiary hospitals in LMICs experience oxygen stockouts on any given day.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>READ MORE: \u201cConduct Population Census This Year\u201d \u2013 Senate Orders NPC<\/p>\n<p>Rising Demand for Oxygen: The Commission noted that \u201cglobal quantities of oxygen required are large and rising,\u201d due to population growth, increased surgical procedures, and the rising demand for long-term oxygen therapy. \u201cAging populations, smoking, poor diet, and air pollution are major drivers of rising demand.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Oxygen Shortages During Emergencies: \u201cIn 2021, an additional 52 million patients required 1.9 billion cubic meters of oxygen to treat COVID-19 globally,\u201d the report states. \u201cThis placed enormous strain on health systems around the world.\u201d The Commission estimates that \u201cexcess COVID-19 mortality in 2020 and 2021 is 15.9 million globally,\u201d with the highest numbers in South Asia, Sub-Saharan Africa, and Latin America.<\/p>\n<p>Cost to Close Oxygen Coverage Gaps: \u201cAn additional $6.8 billion is needed annually to close oxygen coverage gaps in LMICs,\u201d the report concludes. \u201cThis equates to $34 billion between 2025 and 2030.\u201d These figures do not include the additional costs incurred during pandemics or for long-term oxygen therapy services.<\/p>\n<p>Oxygen as a Cost-Effective Investment: The Commission emphasizes that investing in medical oxygen is as cost-effective as \u201croutine childhood immunization,\u201d with a cost of just \u201c$59 per Disability-Adjusted Life Year (DALY) averted.\u201d It will significantly contribute to the achievement of eight health-related SDGs and improve global pandemic preparedness.<\/p>\n<p>The Commissioner further recommended collaborative efforts, stating that governments must collaborate with the Global Oxygen Alliance (GO2AL) to develop national plans that close medical oxygen coverage gaps,\u201d the Commission advises.<\/p>\n<p>It called for increased domestic and international funding to ensure equity in access to oxygen.<br \/>The commission also called for increased funding for oxygen systems.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDonors should contribute to GO2AL\u2019s $4 billion resource mobilization target for 2025-2030,\u201d with a focus on improving \u201coperational costs, which account for 50-80 per cent of total oxygen system costs, but have received little funding to date.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On oxygen in health monitoring, they called for \u201cpulse oximetry and medical oxygen coverage to be routine indicators in UN databases,\u201d such as the WHO Global Health Observatory and UNICEF child health coverage systems. These tools will allow for better tracking of oxygen access and its impact on health outcomes.<\/p>\n<p>Innovation for Sustainable Solutions: \u201cGovernments and industry should collaborate to invest in 20 priority areas for oxygen innovation,\u201d particularly those developed in LMICs. By focusing on climate-sensitive and energy-efficient solutions, medical oxygen systems can help pave the way for \u201cthe long-term health and sustainability of our people and planet.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Commission further recommended other 52 action points targeted at governments, industry, global health agencies, donors, civil society, and research institutions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAn independent body should assess progress in 2027 and ensure that results are made publicly available,\u201d the report suggests. With only five years remaining until the SDG deadline, the Commission stresses the need for a transformation in global health investment.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMedical oxygen can be a pathfinder investment for a new era of health equity,\u201d it argued, advocating for national oxygen plans and well-aligned donor investments to strengthen health systems and meet global health goals.<\/p>\n<p>Culled: Vanguard<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-7\" style=\"margin: 8px auto; text-align: center; display: block; clear: both;\">\n<div data-advadstrackid=\"957118\" data-advadstrackbid=\"1\" class=\"infor-target\" id=\"infor-1670034360\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/300-by250.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"250\"\/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 A new report by The Lancet Global Health Commission on Medical Oxygen Security has found that six out of every 10 people in the world lack access to safe, quality, affordable medical oxygen, stressing that the shortage is contributing to hundreds of thousands of preventable deaths annually and diminishing the quality of life for [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":370529,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[21],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-370528","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-lifestyle"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
