When to ask for an evaluation
Breathlessness at rest or with minimal activity, increasing oxygen needs, recurrent infections, frequent hospital care, weight loss, anxiety related to breathing and growing dependence may signal a need for more support.
A clinician must evaluate the overall pattern of decline and goals of care.
