Summary
Key Learning Points
1. The choice of method of oxygen administration is dependent largely on the desired fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2).
2. To ensure delivery of a high FiO2 and avoid entrainment of room air, the delivery flow rate of oxygen must exceed the patient’s peak inspiratory flow rate.
3. Oxygen administration devices can be fixed or variable performance.
4. Variable performance devices can be adapted to allow for delivery of increased flows and/or higher FiO2.
5. Consideration of patient preference and comfort is an important deciding factor when selecting an oxygen administration device.
