nasal cannula

You might use a face mask at night and a nasal cannula during the day.

The nasal cannula gives you the greatest freedom for moving around and talking.

This can sometimes be giving them oxygen through tubes sitting on their nose (nasal cannula).

In certain circumstances, oxygen may be delivered via a nasal cannula instead of a mask.

Thus oxygen delivery by nasal cannula is limited to less than 6 liters per minute.

Provide oxygen therapy as needed via nasal cannula or non-rebreather mask.

Vapotherm introduced the concept of high flow therapy via nasal cannula in 2000.

Patients discharged on additional inspired oxygen received this by nasal cannulas (de Vilbiss).

Application of up to 100% Oxygen therapy via non-rebreather mask or nasal cannula.

Tube placed under a person's nose (nasal cannula).

They had removed the larger tubes from her throat, leaving only the nasal cannula in place to feed her oxygen.

If you use a nasal cannula:

Nasal cannula is a piece of plastic tubing that runs under the nose and is used to administer oxygen.

A nasal cannula may also be used by pilots and passengers in small, unpressurized aircraft that do not exceed certain altitudes.

Oxygen from gas bottles or liquid containers can be applied directly via a nasal cannula or mask.

Oxygen can be given through a flexible plastic tube inserted in the nostrils (nasal cannula) or through a face mask.

Increased airflow, humidified and delivered via nasal cannula, may be supplied in order to reduce the effort required for respiration.

The nasal cannula is often used in elderly patients or patients who can benefit from oxygen therapy but do not require it to self respirate.

Nasal cannula O (tending to dry the olfactory mucosa)

The system supplies a high concentration of oxygen and is used with a nasal cannula to channel oxygen from the concentrator to the patient.

Nasal cannula usually used for oxygen delivery usually deliver 1-6 liters of oxygen per minute.

On arrival in the endoscopy suite nasal cannulas were attached and, according to the randomisation, either oxygen or air at 2 litres/ minute was given.

A nasal cannula (NC) is a thin tube with two small nozzles that protrude into the patients nostrils.

Flow rates of up to 60 litres of air/oxygen per minute can be delivered through wider bore humidified nasal cannula.
