Oxygen Delivery Devices - Comparison Low Flow: • Nasal cannula (1-6L, 24-40% FiO2) • Face mask (5-10L, 35-60% FiO2) • Face tent/shovel mask (5-15L, 35-50% FiO2) High Flow: • Oxymizer (1-15L, 24-45% FiO2) • Venturi mask (2-15L, 24-50% FiO2) • Non-rebreather (10-15L, 50-90% FiO2) • High-flow nasal cannula (15-60L, 30-100% FiO2) by Dr. Jenny Shih @JennyShihMD via @@iMedEducation #Oxygen #Delivery #Devices #Comparison #table #pulmonary #criticalcare

Oxygen Delivery Systems Nasal Cannula: • Flow: 1 - 6 L/min • FiO2: 25 - 40% (-4%/L of flow) Face Mask: • Flow: 5 - 10 L/min • FiO2: 40 - 60% Device: Face Tent • Flow: 10 - 15 L/min • FiO2: ~40% Venturi Mask: • Flow: 2 - 15 L/min (based on valve) • FiO2: 24 - 60% (precisely controlled) Non-Rebreather: • Flow: 10 - 15 Lmin • FiO2: 80 - 95% High Flow Nasal Cannula: • Flow: up to 60 L/min • FiO2: 21 - 100% - Dr. Rishi Kumar @rishikumarmd #Oxygen #Delivery #Systems #respiratory #support #devices…

Oxygen Delivery by Device Nasal Cannula • Indicated for low-flow, low-percentage supplemental oxygen. • Flow rate of 1-6 Umin. • Delivers oxygen. • Pt can eat. drink, and talk. • Extended use can be very drying; Simple Face Mask • Indicated for higher percentage supplemental oxygen. • Flow rate of 6-10 Umin. • Delivers oxygen. • Lateral perforations permit exhaled CO2 to escape. • Permits humidification. Nonrebreather Mask • Indicated for high percentage FiO • Incorporates use of reservoir…
