Oxygen Delivery System Flashcards
Nasal cannula’s Flow rate?
2 - 6 L/min
Simple Mask’s Flow rate?
6 - 10 L/min
Non-rebreather mask’s Flow rate?
10 - 15 L/min
High-flow oxygen therapy’s Flow rate?
Up to 60 L/min
Venturi mask’s Flow rate?
2 - 15 L/min
Face tent’s Flow rate?
At least 10 L/min
A low-flow device used for non-acute situations and this can be given as humidified air to lower nasal irritation/dryness? Fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO²) is 24 - 44%.
Nasal cannula
A low-flow device used for non-acute situations? Fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO²) is 40 - 60%.
Simple masks
A low-flow device used for acutely ill patients? Fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO²) is 80 - 90%.
Non-rebreather mask
A high-flow oxygen often a high flow nasal cannula? Fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO²) is 21 - 100%
High-flow oxygen therapy
A high-flow device best for patients with chronic lung disease. This is the most precise oxygen delivery without intubation? Fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO²) is 24 - 50%.
Venturi mask
A high-flow device thaycis great for those who don’t tolerate masks well? Fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO²) is 24 - 100%.
Face tent
