Oxygen Delivery: Four Methods Every Nurse Needs to Know

Oxygen Delivery: Four Methods Every Nurse Needs to Know
Nasal Cannula / Simple / Partial Rebreather / NonRebreather Masks
In this video I cover the four more common forms of delivery oxygen to patients that nursing students and nurses need to know. We look at oxygen delivery from a liter per minute flow rate and convert that to the % of oxygen available per breath.
The four delivery models explored are
1. Nasal cannula
2. Simple mask
3. Partial rebreather
4. Nonrebreather mask
Some of the Resources:
Merck Manual
Essentials of Pathophysiology, Tommie Norris, 5th ed
Quick Reference for Critical Care, Diepenbrock, 3rd ed
Nursing students, nurses, and other health care professionals benefit from learning these signs and symptoms as they are the frontline eyes of the healthcare system.

    Excellent presentation! We love RTs, however nurses still need to understand oxygen delivery principles.

    Hi. Thankyou for the great videos. I have two questions. 1). I see some nurses use simple face masks while administering 3 or 4 liters. My understanding was that simple face masks require a minimum of 6 liters oxygen otherwise the oatient is at risk for inhaling his CO2 . 2) For COPD patients in acute distress with sats in 60s and 70s i have seen them Yreated with 10 plus liters during urgent situations while they are awaiting transport to ER. Is this harmful to them? Thank you again

    Great questions. The simple mask used at lower levels may be for patient comfort - there will be a pathway for exhaled air to escape - and the literature does recommend at least 6L/min flow to “flush” out CO2; that said always monitor the patient for effectiveness. COPD patients may need 10 plus litres to restore levels to their safe levels; the physician will set the target sat level for your patient

    Thank you for answering my questions. I truly appreciate your videos. I am returning to bedside nursing after taking time off and am trying to review skills. Take care
