Oxygen Delivery
This oxygen delivery device is used for breathing patients and delivers relatively low oxygen concentrations
Nasal Cannula
Equipment required to deliver supplementary oxygen
An oxygen cylinder, a pressure regulator with a flowmeter, and a delivery device.
Assuming the patient has no obvious signs of injury, what position should they be placed in to utilize a mechanical suctioning device?
On the side with the mouth open (or recovery position)
Oxygen tanks should never be stored near this because of the risk of explosion.
Open flames or Sparks
This technique should be used when children or infants are afraid of a mask being placed over their face
Blow-By
This mask is used for breathing patients in respiratory distress and delivers relatively high-concentration oxygen
Non-Rebreather Mask
The two primary types of oxygen delivery systems are variable-flow-rate and ____
Fixed-Flow-Rate
This type of suctioning device does not require electricity or batteries and is operated by hand
Manual Suctioning Device
TRUE or FALSE: In order to lubricate the regulator to ensure proper airflow, it is recommended to use grease or petroleum-based products
FALSE
An infant who is breathing but shows no obvious signs of injury should only be administered oxygen if their breaths per minute falls into these ranges
Fewer than 25 breaths per minute or more than 50 breaths per minute
The BVM, when connected to emergency oxygen, can delivery up to ____ percentage of oxygen
90%
This part of an oxygen cylinder controls and adjusts the flow of oxygen
Flowmeter or Pressure Regulator
When suctioning an adult, it should take no longer than ____ seconds at a time
15 seconds
Assuming the oxygen cylinder is well secured, which position should it be stored in?
Upright
Various sizes of these devices are available for adults, children and infants.
Nasal Cannulas, non-rebreather masks, BVMs, resuscitation masks
The standard flow rate for a non-rebreather mask is between these two values
10-15 LPM
A full oxygen cylinder has a pressure of approximately ____ psi
2,000 psi
At the end of delivery from a manual suctioning unit, airflow should be at least ____
40 LPM
This safety feature prevents the wrong regulator from being attached to an oxygen cylinder
Pin Index Safety System
When using a BVM, to assist a child breathing more than 30 times per minute you should squeeze the bag every ____
Second Breath
SCENARIO: A elderly man is experiencing severe respiratory problems. He is conscious but struggling to breathe, and his pulse oximeter reading shows an oxygen saturation of 82%. You need to deliver high-concentration oxygen as quickly as possible while still allowing him to breathe on his own. Which oxygen delivery device would be the best to use in this case?
Non-Rebreather Mask
TRUE or FALSE: When tightening the screw on the pressure regulator, it is recommended to utilize a hexagonal wrench to tighten as much as possible.
FALSE - You should only hand-tighten the screw
The maximum suction duration for a child is ____ seconds, and for an infant is ____ seconds
10 seconds; 5 seconds
Before attaching a regulator, this should be done to clear debris from the valve
Point oxygen cylinder away from you and open for one second
SCENARIO: An infant requires suctioning due to excessive mucus obstructing their airway. To avoid causing injury or hypoxia, what is the maximum duration you should suction?
5 seconds
