Oxygen can be administered through a nasal cannula at a flow rate of up to 6 liters per minute. Higher flow rates are more likely to cause nasal dryness, mucosal injury, and epistaxis. Like a nasal cannula, a simple face mask can be used to administer supplemental oxygen in a patient who is breathing spontaneously.
An overview of oxygen delivery devices including nasal cannulae, simple face masks, venturi masks and humidified oxygen.
When oxygen is delivered through a nasal cannula, inspired ambient air mixes with the oxygen in varying proportions. In general, the fraction of inspired oxygen (F io2) that is above the normal atmospheric level increases by approximately 4% for every additional liter of oxygen administered per minute.
The blender allows delivery of controlled, lower FiO2 (e.g. 0.25 – 0.4), and the higher flows may provide some positive pressure (0-3 cmH20). Consider the following sizes and ranges for oxygen delivery via nasal cannula in neonates and pediatrics:
Nasal cannula (aka nasal prongs), is one of the most commonly encountered oxygen delivery devices worldwide and the preferred method for delivering oxygen to infants and children under 5 years of age with hypoxemia, according to the WHO. A nasal cannula consists of plastic tubes that end in two short tapered prongs that are placed in the nostrils.
Study Objectives: High nasal resistance is associated with oral appliance treatment failure in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). A novel oral appliance with a built-in oral airwayhas been shown to reduce pharyngeal pressure swings during sleep and may be efficacious in those with high nasal resistance.
By using three different manikins, and both oral and nasal intubation, we were able to explore differences in performance by route and simulator. Overall, the results indicate that both nasal intubation and the …
Up to this date, a relatively small number of experimental studies address the effect of nasal vs. oral vs. oronasal breathing in the context of physical performance [4]. …
We have developed a new O2 applicator to try to overcome the problems of long-term oxygen therapy that ensures a sufficient oxygen supply for both nasal and oral breathing and prevents mucosal irritation. Placed on the upper lip, it is …
