Treatment
If I read the “Treatment” section properly, the treatment for hyperoxia (excess oxygen, basically) is… to administer more oxygen? How can this be? CielProfond (talk) 22:55, 29 January 2021 (UTC)
 * You did not read/understand the section correctly, that is not what it said. What it said is that the minimum supplemental oxygen that suffices to treat the underlying condition should be used. &middot; &middot; &middot; Peter Southwood (talk): 05:24, 22 December 2022 (UTC)

Distinction between Hyperoxia and Oxygen toxicity
I am not too clear on the difference in scope between Hyperoxia and Oxygen toxicity. I would appreciate comment or explanation from an expert. Non-experts can also comment if they have a reliable MEDRS source to cite, or some practical suggestions. As this is Wikipedia, I am drawing no logical conclusions from the two articles co-existing for a considerable time. The titles suggest that Hyperoxia has a wider scope, as a title that suggests a cause, and Oxygen toxicity suggests the effects of that cause if sufficiently severe, so I see co-existence as a reasonable position, but with considerable overlap of scope. &middot; &middot; &middot; Peter Southwood (talk): 17:41, 22 December 2022 (UTC)
