Fixed performance oxygen masks: an evaluation.
Fixed performance oxygen masks operate by supplying mixtures of oxygen and air at rates exceeding the inspiratory flow rate of the patient. In this study the oxygen concentration delivered by three fixed performance oxygen masks was determined non-invasively at various inspiratory flow rates. At low inspiratory flow rates all the masks studied acted as fixed performance devices. When the peak i...

Attributable to polar economic philosophies characterising the clash between America‟s system of capitalistic democracy and the Soviet Union's form of state-sponsored (Communist) socialism (during the culmin...
متن کاملRecovery room oxygenation: a comparison of nasal catheters and 40 per cent oxygen masks.
One hundred and sixty-one ASA physical status I-III patients undergoing elective surgery were evaluated using nasal catheters versus 40 per cent O2 venturi masks. Twenty-one per cent of the patients arrived in the recovery room with hypoxia as measured with a pulse oximeter (SaO2 less than 90 per cent). Fifteen minutes later all patients who arrived hypoxic were well oxygenated on their chosen ...
