Hello Ma'am, I'm an RT student, the standard Venturi Mask kit's typically are packed with 5 assorted venturi adapters. However, some venturi mask kit's are packed with a 6th adapter which will change the FiO2 % adapters slightly allowing the sixth one to produce 60% FiO2. The green one would then be rated at 60% with a flow rate of 12-15/lpm making the venturi mask capable of producing and delivering up to and including 60% FiO2, thus, changing the other venturi adapters such as the orange venturi adapter would change to 31% and so on (most hospitals purchase the 5 adapter vs. the 6 adapter kit), I hope this helped.

I'm a new nurse, and we barely covered oxygen delivery devices in school :-( Thank you for your great videos! QUESTION: I know you said the cannula needs humidification if more than 2LPM is applied, but do nebulizer treatments need humidification as well? I could've sworn you addressed it, and have been fasf-forwarding and rewinding your vid for the last 10 minutes and can't pin-point it. (or maybe I was just hallucinating and you didn't specify...?) Because I swear I saw a client earlier today that had a nebulizer treatment that was attached to humidification... please clarify if you have time :-D
@NurseErica5 жыл бұрын
Congratulations on becoming a nurse! The nebulizer is given via an aerosol mask, but is usually attached to a christmas tree. There is no need to put the nebulizer treatment on humidified oxygen since it's an aerosol treatment. You also do not want to use humidified oxygen when using a non breather or venturi mask. I hope this helps. I love to see people invested in learning more about their craft.

@NurseErica3 жыл бұрын
Hi Romana, It is patient specific, if a patient is able to tolerate being on NC for a short time to eat, we usually feed them a little at a time and give them breaks. If a patient is not tolerating the NC and is SOB, eating is dangerous because they can decompensate or aspirate. In that case we may lift the mask for small sips of water as tolerated and administer IV supplementation instead.

My best advice on studying for anatomy & physiology, more specifically the cardiopulmonary system is be sure to try to understand what is happening and why. If you stop trying to memorize and you try to understand the role of the cardiopulmonary system, it will become more interesting and easier to understand. Flashcards are always helpful. Also, if your professor allows you to see previous exams, be sure to take advantage. It may not be that you don't understand the topic, it may be you are not understanding how to answer correctly.

Hi Patrisha, my apologies for the late reply. Partial rebreather allows the patient to rebreathe some exhaled air and provides 60-80%Fio2. Non rebreather has a one way valve that prevents the patient from rebreathing exhaled air, providing a more concentrated oxygen 80-95%.
