2. “Admisteration of oxygen at a concentratio
of pressure greater than the enviromental
pressure”
Breathe air contain 21% oxygen.
Oxygen therapy is a key of treatment in respiratory care.
3. “Portable oxygen cylinders are essential
medical devices used to deliver supplemental
oxygen to individuals with respiratoryconditions
or those in need of oxygen therapy.”
• Depending on their size and pressure rating.
• Common sizes include E, D, and M6 cylinders.
4. 1. An E cylinder typically contains around 680 liters of
oxygen when filled at a pressure of 2,000 pounds per
square inch (psi).
2. A D cylinder holds approximately 425 liters of oxygen at
the same pressure.
3. An M6 cylinder, often used for portable oxygen, stores
around 170 liters of oxygen.
6. Medical Emergencies:
Portable oxygen cylinders are crucial in emergency situations where immediate
oxygen therapy is necessary, such as asthma attacks or heart failure.
Chronic Respiratory Conditions:
Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), emphysema, or cystic
fibrosis may require supplemental oxygen to manage their symptoms and improve their quality
of life.
Travel:
Portable oxygen cylinders allow patients to travel safely, whether it's for short trips or
extended vacations. They provide a reliable source of oxygen away from home.
Recreational Activities:
Individuals who enjoy outdoor activities like hiking, camping, or skiing may use portable
oxygen cylinders to maintain adequate oxygen levels at high altitudes or during exertion.
7. • In inpatients settings,rooms are equiped with wall
mouthed oxygen supply that are nationally green color
• Air outlet are nationally yellow color.
• Oxygen flow meter are attach to the green oxygen outlet
while oxygenation device are attach to the flow meter.

9. “Oxygen guage is a medical device
designed to display the pressure level
in oxygen tank or oxygen cylinder”
• Pressure systems are designed to operate within a
specific pressure range
11. • Measure the pressure of liquid vapours,solid and gases.
• used in chemical,petrochemical,sanitary, pharmaceutical and
process industries.
12. • Monitor the pressure in a gas cylinder.
• Measures the pressure of a fluid in hydraulic system.
• Unit :Psi
• Stand for (Pound per square inch guage)
13. “Humidifier bottles are medical devices
that increase the humidity in your oxygen
while using supplemental oxygen.”
• It’s look like a water bottle.
• Have a special cap with a wing nut on top used for
attaching the humidifier to an oxygen concentrator.
14. • Water Chamber:
Where water is stored for
humidification.
• Diffuser:
A component that allows oxygen to
pass through the water, picking up moisture.
• Flow Control:
Regulates the rate of oxygen flow
through the humidifier.
15. • Reducing sensations of dryness in the upper airways.
• Prevent irritation in track.
• Comfort in inhalation
• Helps in easing in Asthma.
• Prevent skin from dryness.
16. 1. Infection Control:
Emphasize the need for infection prevention.
2.Monitoring:
Regularly check for leaks or malfunctions.
3.Healthcare Provider's Guidance:
Always follow recommendations from
healthcare professionals.
17. “The flow meter knob is a control mechanism
that regulates the flow of a substance,
like gas or liquid, through a system”.
• It can be adjusted to increase or decrease the flow rate.
• Common type of flow meter knob used is the "rotatory knob."
18. 1) This knob allows you to adjust the
flow rate of oxygen to meet the
patient's needs.
2) By simply rotating the knob, you can
increase or decrease the oxygen
flow for effective therapy.
3) It's designed to be easy to use and
ensure precise control over the
oxygen delivery.
