How to Properly Put on a Cannula Tutorial | Mountain High Aviation Oxygen

[@kathyhammer5749]

I had not had a decent nights sleep having to wear my cannula. This video, literally , saved my life and gave me back sleeping! I now put it on from behind my head, and no longer fear choking as I used to when putting it on the most popular way. THANK YOU!!!!!

Literally in hospital trying to make sure i got it right at 6 a.m. Thank you sir!

This is sorely lacking. No cannulas that have ever been supplied to me have the "tab." So I wondered, are the prongs supposed to be pointed downward or upward? Can't tell by the video, as it's not really clear and due to optical illusion, the prongs can appear to be going up or down. We need to be told. Previously I read the prongs should point down, so for a year that's how I've been wearing them. But alas, today they delivered mini-tanks with pulse action. I could not figure out why the pulse just didn't seem to work. Eventually I discovered that with the tabs pointing down, the unit was not perceiving an intake of breath through my nose. When I turned the prongs up, the pulse worked just fine. So now I'm wondering, what is supposed to be the right way. Seems a video purporting to show how to wear a cannula should cover this.

ApplyUrBrain -- Exactly. I have the same issue. No tab.

[@QueenBee1967]

I agree it is not very clear and mine also does not have a tab

[@Livnthegr8life]

No tab here.

[@anthonyeverson3552]

I also have no tab. However it seems to seat itself more comfortably with the prongs facing downward for me,

[@wvjmat1]

There is no tab on mine, either. I have looked at different videos and I like this one best because there isn't any loud music, making it difficult to hear the person speaking.

So what do you do when your ears are raw sore and bleeding from that thing rubbing them there's no answers about this

[@screamtoasigh9984]

Don't put it behind your ears, tape it to your face with medical tape or get a full oxygen mask

[@3comtechnologies28]

Thank you very much 🙏

[@fatimzahra_q]

[@davidjones8273]

[@thedeanisin256]

[@hx3692]

Down. He mentions it at 0:24

[@lorettatomplait2672]

H X do you mean curved downward in the nostrils, because my sister and I are disagreement about this for our mother.

[@lorettatomplait2672]

H X at :24 he says the tap . I'm confused

[@gladysnelson6932]

Ask a Doctor, cos is confusing!! =) he'll clarify better!!

[@gsabax]
