Oxygen Delivery Systems
Three basic design systems exist
What are low-flow system, reservoir systems, and high-flow systems
Nasal Cannula
Nasal Cannula
What is 1/4 to 6L/min
Medical Gas used to treat pulmonary hypertension
What is Nitric Oxide
The most common used 0xygen delivery device and will need a humidifier if flows greater than 4 L/min
What is a nasal cannula
Simple Mask
Simple Mask
What is 5-10 L/min
Effective in treating acute obstructions
What is Helium-Oxygen therapy
This oxygen delivery device is almost exclusively used for limited short term procedures such as a bronchoscopy
What is a nasal catheter
AEM
Partial rebreathing mask
What is min of 10 L/min /prevent bag from collapse on inspiration
Can be used in the treatment of hiccups and carbon monoxide poisoning
What is carbon dioxide-Oxygen (Carbogen) therapy
What is a high-flow nasal cannula
Non-rebreathing mask
What is 60%-80%
Non rebreathing mask
What is min of 10 L/min /prevent bag from collapse on inspiration
What is HBO therapy
This delivery device has a valve between the mask and reservoir bag
What is a non-rebreather mask
Oxyhood
What is 21%-100%
High-Flow nasal cannula
What is up to 40 L/min or higher depending on system being used
Carbon dioxide-Oxygen (Carbogen) therapy is administered to patients by which oxygen delivery device
What is nonrebreathing mask
