Introduction
� Oxygen is a colourless, odourless and tasteless gas that is essential for the body to function properly and survive
� The air we breathe contains 21% oxygen (O2), 78% nitrogen (N2) and oxygen (O2), 78% nitrogen (N2) and 1% of other gases
� Oxygen therapy is the administration of oxygen as an intervention, which can be for a variety of purposes in both chronic and acute patient care
• administration of oxygen at concentrations greater than that in room air to treat or prevent hypoxemia (not enough oxygen in the blood).
Purpose:• increase oxygen saturation in tissues where the
Introduction
• increase oxygen saturation in tissues where the saturation levels are too low due to illness or injury
• increases the amount of oxygen in the blood• reduces the extra work of the heart• decreases shortness of breath
� Delivery of oxygen to tissues depends on :- Inspired oxygen concentration- Alveolar ventilation- Ventilation-perfusion distribution within the
lungs

lungs- Hb concentration- concentration of CO- Cardiac output- Distribution of capillary blood flow within the
tissues� Oxygen levels in the blood can be helpful or
damaging
Conditions for oxygen therapy
Acute Conditions : in emergency care1. Resuscitation2. Documented hypoxia3. Severe respiratory distress (acute asthma or 3. Severe respiratory distress (acute asthma or
pneumonia)4. Shock5. Cor pulmonale6. Acute myocardial infarction7. Severe trauma
8. Pulmonary hypertension9. Major hemorrhage10. Convulsion11. Hypothermia
Conditions for oxygen therapy
11. Hypothermia12. As home therapy to abort cluster headache
attacks,due to its vasoconstrictive effect13. Used as a drug delivery route as nebulizer
mask for delivery of Salbutamol or Epinephrine
Three forms of oxygen therapy:
1. Normobaric oxygen (NBO), also called surface or sea level oxygen, is the administration of supplemental oxygen (24 to 100%) at atmospheric pressure. Examples of medical conditions include asthmas, congestive heart failure, pulmonary oedema or as a first-aid treatment in search and rescue operations. It is also used for anaesthesia during surgeries.
2. Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO): In this treatment, 100 % oxygen is breathed at elevated pressure. It is an essential treatment in many conditions, including decompression illness, carbon monoxide poisoning, burns and mountain sickness.
3. Hypobaric or “altitude” oxygen: Because of the physiological limitation of humans when operating at altitude, they require an O2 concentration greater than that inspired at sea level to prevent hypoxia.
Chronic Conditions :1. COPD2. Lung fibrosis3. Sleep apnea

- Delivering 0� low concentration of 24-45% at 2-6LPM
- > 6 LPM, tend to swallow air and the Fi 0� is not increased
- Limitation: inability to deliver high concentrations of 0�, and can be drying and irritating to mucous membranes
Administration
2. Face Mask- Simple face mask delivering 0� concentration of 40-
60% at liter flows of 5 – 8 LPM- Partial rebreathing mask delivering 0� concentration of
60-90% at liter flows of 6 – 10 LPM- Nonrebreathing mask delivering 0� concentration of
�
- Nonrebreathing mask delivering 0� concentration of 95-100% at liter flows of 10 – 15 LPM
- Venturi mask delivering 0� concentration varying from 24% to 40%, or 50% at liter flows of 4 – 10 LPM. It has wide bore tubing and color-coded jet adapters that correspond to a precise oxygen concentration and liter flow

Administration
2. Face Tent- Can replace oxygen masks when masks are
poorly tolerated by clients- Provide varying concentration of oxygen, e.g
30% - 50% at 4 – 8 LPM- Frequently inspect for dampness, dry, and
treat as needed

Conclusion
• Oxygen is essential for cell metabolism, and in turn, tissue oxygenation is essential for all normal physiologic functions.
• Prompt recognition of life threatening situations • Prompt recognition of life threatening situations and immediate administration of oxygen appropriately will benefit the patient in reducing morbidity and mortality*
