Calculating Cylinder Use Flashcards
1
Q
Find Remaining Volume
A
V1/P1= V2/P2
V2 = (P2/P1) x V1
Example:
(750 psi/2200 psi) x 660 L = 225 L
2
Q
Find Current Use
A
Total O2 Consumption=FGF+Minute Ventilation
FGF = 2 L/min
VE = VT x RR = 0.7 L x 10 bpm = 7 L/min
Total O2 Consumption = 2 L/min + 7 L/min
