Oxygen Multistep Therapy
OMST

Normal saturation does not tell you how much oxygen reaches the cells. Manfred von Ardenne measured something else, the difference between arterial and venous oxygen, and created a three-step method to increase it: oral substances, oxygen at normal pressure and exercise or heat. This e-book translates the method and delivers the 9 protocols, from the 15-minute quick procedure to the 36-hour program, with the flow, time and oxygen consumption of each one.

  • 9 protocols with flow, time, supplements and safety limits
  • Equipment, mask and oxygen consumption, calculated
  • Von Ardenne's method and what the studies show

01Why this e-book exists

Breathing oxygen
is not the same as oxygenating the cell.

In clinics and groups, exercise with oxygen is often reduced to a mask hooked up to a concentrator. Von Ardenne's method asks for more, and it asks for measurement. These are six misconceptions the e-book clears up, each with the page where you will find it.

  • 01Pages 5 and 23

    "Normal saturation, plenty of oxygen"

    The test shows that the blood is saturated; it does not show how much oxygen passes to the cells. Von Ardenne measured the difference between arterial and venous oxygen. In Robert Rowen's calculations, this difference falls from 55 mmHg at age 30 to 35 mmHg at age 70.

  • 02Page 5

    A mask and a concentrator alone are not OMST

    The name "multistep" comes from three steps in the same session: oral substances that promote oxygen uptake (vitamin B1, dipyridamole, magnesium orotate), oxygen-enriched air at normal pressure and exercise or heat to increase cardiac output.

  • 03Page 5

    The capillary "switch"

    According to von Ardenne, with little oxygen the capillary endothelium swells and narrows the vessel; when the oxygen pressure at the venous end of the capillary reaches 50 mmHg, the swelling regresses. The e-book also shows what this theory has not yet tested.

  • 04Page 33

    "Any concentrator will do"

    Home concentrators generally deliver up to 5 L/min, and the Quick Procedure calls for 15 to 30. And the flowmeter is off: in a test of 102 devices, they delivered about 22% and 40% more than the set value at 5 and 10 L/min.

  • 05Page 33

    The mask decides how much oxygen gets in

    With a nasal cannula, the inspired air reaches 24-40% oxygen; with a reservoir mask, 80-95%. And the reservoir bag must not collapse completely on any inspiration: if it collapses, the flow is too low for the volume being breathed.

  • 06Page 35

    "Oxygen doesn't interact with anything"

    Supplemental oxygen may precipitate or worsen bleomycin pulmonary toxicity, and an interaction with amiodarone has been reported. Anyone who is taking or has taken bleomycin, or who is taking amiodarone, should only undergo OMST after evaluation by their oncologist or attending physician.

The e-book does not replace the assessment of each person. It brings together the method, the equipment and the protocols, and shows what comes from the studies of von Ardenne's own group and what independent evaluations concluded.

02What you get

The whole method,
with the flow, time and consumption of each step.

The protocols and information of the cover subtitle, delivered in flow, consumption and step-by-step tables.

Recommendation by Dr. Carlos Rogerio

In cancer patients, a flow of 8 L/min or 10 L/min is recommended, delivered by high-flow mask with reservoir (non-rebreather).

How the translator's recommendations appear in the e-book (Materials and equipment, p. 35)
01
Pages 5 to 31

Von Ardenne's method, explained

How the method was born, what it proposes and what the studies show, before any protocol.

  • The three steps and the variants: the 15-minute quick process, the series of about 18 sessions of 2 hours and the 36-hour process over 18 days
  • The microcirculation switch mechanism and the 50 mmHg threshold at the venous end of the capillary
  • What von Ardenne's studies reported, such as 17% more physical endurance in a double-blind study of 20 men, and what independent evaluations concluded
  • OMST and the hyperbaric chamber: pressure versus exertion, and who each one is better suited for
  • The inventor behind the method: about 600 patents, the first fully electronic television transmission and the scanning electron microscope
02
Pages 32 to 36

Equipment and oxygen consumption, calculated

What each device actually delivers and how much oxygen each protocol uses, before you buy or rent.

  • Oxygen source in Brazil: medical oxygen under Anvisa rules, cylinders of 0.5 to 10 m³ and concentrators of 90 to 96%
  • Regulator and flowmeter: the 15 L/min limit and what changes in the protocols that call for more
  • Cannula, simple mask, reservoir mask and Venturi: the flow and inspired oxygen of each one
  • The formulas and Tables 3 and 4: how long a 10 m³ cylinder lasts and how much each protocol uses per session
  • Pulse oximeter, blood pressure monitor and thermometer: what to monitor and where the oximeter misleads
03
Pages 37 to 61

9 protocols, step by step

Each protocol opens with a summary of duration, sessions and oxygen and closes with a technical note.

  • Low and high blood pressure, with the blood pressure and pulse limits for stopping the procedure
  • Systemic hyperthermia, immune boost and localized healing, with oxygen during the heat
  • The 15-minute Quick Procedure, at 25-30 L/min, for those with a healthy heart who are able to exercise
  • The 36-Hour Program GK 4-II, 2 hours a day for 18 days, and maintenance in 5-minute bursts
  • Low-intensity autism support, with a tent, pediatric mask or cannula

05Who it's for

Written for those who guide and open to those who practice.

The e-book is intended for health professionals, but anyone can buy it. The professional decides the protocol, flow and supplements; whoever is going to do OMST understands the method and arrives at the appointment knowing what to ask.

Health professionals

Who use or want to use oxygen with exercise or heat and need the flow, time, device and limits of each protocol.

  • The 9 protocols with summary, supplements, procedure and technical note
  • Cannula, mask and reservoir: the inspired oxygen of each device and how to check the bag
  • The consumption per session of each protocol and how many sessions a 10 m³ cylinder yields
  • The blood pressure and pulse limits for stopping, and the interactions with bleomycin and amiodarone

Patients and the general public

Who have heard about exercise with oxygen or OMST and want to understand the method before talking to a health professional.

  • What OMST is and how it differs from the hyperbaric chamber
  • Why the protocols with exertion are only for people with a healthy heart
  • Precautions with oxygen at home: no smoking, not even e-cigarettes, no oil on the valves and the cylinder always secured
  • Why dipyridamole is a prescription drug and why anyone taking bleomycin or amiodarone needs an evaluation first

Intended for health professionals. For patients and the general public, the e-book is a way to understand the method: it is not a prescription, it does not replace the assessment of a health professional, and the protocols are not for doing on your own.

Each of the 9 protocols closes with a technical note from the translator, which points out where the original contradicts itself (flow, time, doses) instead of silently correcting it. And the opening chapter states plainly what the studies show and what is still missing.
