39
Q

nasal cannula

A

Nasal prongs that sit in the nares
o 1-6 L/min
o 24-44% FiO2
o Indication – mild shortness of breath, asthma, COPD, CF,
pneumonia
o Risks – mucosal drying, skin breakdown at nares and ears

40
Q

A

Standard face mask that covers the nose and mouth
o 6-10 L/min
o 40-60% FiO2
o If it has a reservoir bag on it, it is called a partial rebreather mask
o Indication – if nasal cannula is insufficient
o Risks – CO2 buildup, cannot eat or drink while wearing

41
Q

Nonrebreather Mask

A

Has a valve on the exhalation port and between the reservoir
bag and mask
o The valves prevent room air from coming in

o Indication - if simple mask is insufficient, traumatic injury, or
smoke inhalation
o Risks – uncomfortable, impedes ability to communicate, eat, or
drink
