    AbstractAmple evidence supports an association between acute oxygen over-administration and harm.

We assessed adherence to acute oxygen use guidelines and outcomes in hospitalised patients with COPD at a large Australian metropolitan hospital network.© 2021 Royal Australasian College of Physicians.
