1

Introduction to Oxygen Delivery

Oxygen delivery is crucial in managing patients with respiratory distress. Understanding the various modalities is essential for effective treatment.

2

Why Oxygen Therapy is Important

Oxygen therapy is vital for:

  • Improving oxygenation in patients with hypoxemia.
  • Reducing work of breathing in patients with respiratory failure.
  • Enhancing quality of life for chronic respiratory conditions.
3

Types of Oxygen Delivery Systems

There are several types of oxygen delivery systems, including:

  • Nasal Cannula: A common, low-flow device.
  • Simple Face Mask: Provides a higher concentration of oxygen.
  • Venturi Mask: Delivers precise oxygen concentrations.
  • Non-Rebreather Mask: Used in emergencies for high oxygen delivery.
  • High-Flow Nasal Cannula: Offers heated and humidified oxygen.
4

Nasal Cannula: Overview

The nasal cannula is a widely used device that:

  • Delivers 1-6 L/min of oxygen.
  • Is comfortable for long-term use.
  • Allows for eating and speaking while in use.
5

Face Masks: Types and Uses

Face masks come in various types:

  • Simple Face Mask: 6-10 L/min, used for moderate oxygen needs.
  • Partial Rebreather Mask: 8-15 L/min, allows rebreathing of CO2.
  • Non-Rebreather Mask: 10-15 L/min, for critical hypoxemia.
6

Venturi Mask: Precision in Delivery

The Venturi mask is unique because it:

  • Delivers a specific concentration of oxygen.
  • Utilizes color-coded adapters for different flow rates.
  • Is ideal for patients with COPD.
7

High-Flow Nasal Cannula: Innovations

High-flow nasal cannula therapy offers:

  • Heated and humidified oxygen, improving comfort.
  • Flow rates of up to 60 L/min.
  • Better tolerance in patients with acute respiratory failure.
8

Monitoring Oxygen Therapy

Effective monitoring is crucial for oxygen therapy:

  • Pulse Oximetry: Measures oxygen saturation levels.
  • Arterial Blood Gases (ABG): Assesses oxygenation and acid-base status.
  • Clinical Assessment: Observing patient response and comfort.
9

Conclusion: Choosing the Right Modality

Selecting the appropriate oxygen delivery modality depends on:

  • Patient's condition and oxygen needs.
  • Comfort and tolerance of the device.
  • Clinical setting and available resources.

Understanding these factors ensures optimal patient care.
