When to give oxygen versus when to use a BVM (bag valve mask) is one of the most common questions I get as The Paramedic Coach. Oxygenation the process of giving oxygen versus ventilation breathing air in and out are two different processes that I will discuss.
Part of EMS education is to know when to use nasal cannula, non-breather mask and bag valve mask ventilations. Most EMS providers now have the ability to utilize CPAP in their standing order protocol. Using a simple EMS mnemonic, I can show you when to take which action next.
After watching this video, you won't need to ask "When to give oxygen" you will know exact when is the right time to do so on NREMT exams and out in the field working as an EMT/Paramedic.
Be great,
Evan, The Paramedic Coach®

I went through EMT school and I left there feeling like I knew some things but when I watch your videos i feel like I know more EMT school didn't go into depth about things it was power points and some hands on which I hated I wish I had more hands on because that's how I learn but for some reason when watching these videos i feel more comfortable with my knowledge I unfortunately failed my first attempt at the NREMT I hope with the things I need to become stronger in there videos help me pass my second attempt thank you for helping I wished when I was in emt school I would have watched more of your veidos on what the lecture was about

Did you pass ur nremt?

[@noahbaker9263]

My school said they only give you the info to pass the NREMT things are done differently in the field than on paper

[@ozemite7746]

Thank you so much!

If someone’s RR is too high, how would you fix this problem? Is there such thing as bag valving someone back to a normal RR?

[@TheParamedicCoach]

Yes, in some circumstances for example someone could have a high RR, and be unresponsive or semi-responsive and not be able to manage their own airway, this could be a case for BVM. When out in the field, use RR OWL to evaluate what to do next.

[@Satchafunkilus]

a great educator

[@vonnelson5403]

Very helpful and more understandable

[@TheParamedicCoach]

Glad it was helpful!

[@duenge]

Demand Valve.....Ohhhhh, them was da days!

[@dayofayanju9021]

Clarifying question: is words per sentence how many words the patient can say without needing to take another breath? For example, if they’re saying "My(breath)name(breath) is (breath) John" , are they speaking in 1-2 word sentences or 4 word sentences?

[@breakinmadly]

Excellent video

[@TheParamedicCoach]

Thank you very much!

[@bnposeidon]

[@TheParamedicCoach]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@notbad88]

I’m confused, when would a nebuliser be used?

[@chase7624]

Nebuliser is used for MDI’s (inhalers)

[@ultrazchevycamaro]

It's used to relieve coughs and other symptoms caused by respiratory illnesses.

[@TheParamedicCoach]

A nebulizer is used when medications need to be given via the inhalation route. This video highlights oxygenation devices versus ventilation devices, patients who are suffering from certain conditions such as asthma, COPD, anaphylaxis would be candidates for a nebulizer treatment in addition to receiving oxygen via the nebulizer at 6-8 LPM typically.
