Brutally wounded during his duel with Darth Vader, Luke has only just come out of the battle with his life, with deeper psychological scars and emotional revelations that will haunt him for a long time to come, as Leia takes him to the cramped medial area of the Falcon from which he receives additional oxygen whilst his severed hand injury is given a futuristic form of wrist cast.
It looks as if this scene was likely a late addition to the script, certainly after the film's fifth draft of 20/2/79.
The scene was originally shot longer, of which Luke discovers the fate of Han Solo at the hands of Boba Fett, but was ultimately truncated for timing and pace reasons.
