• The aim of this retrospective study was to investigate the accordance between the indications used for prescription of continuous domiciliary oxygen and the guidelines recommended by the Danish Society of Pulmonary Medicine. Sixty-two patients with chronic hypoxic respiratory insufficiency in chronic domiciliary oxygen therapy were investigated. Only one patient fulfilled all the prescribed recommendations and, in general, there were no registrations of compliance or of follow-ups in the patient records.
