Do you know the different types of OXYGEN delivery methods? ‍

⭐Nasal cannula → delivers O2 via 2 nasal prongs
→ NOTE: These are curved, so always be sure to tilt these DOWN into the patient’s nose!
→ Humidify if possible to avoid drying the mucous membranes

⭐Simple Face Mask → allows for some external air exchange
→ be sure to fit it to the patient’s face and tighten the strap around the back of the head

⭐Nonrebreather mask → Oneway valve with reservoir!
→ gives higher concentration of O2, often used in immediate care or emergencies

⭐Venturi mask → think VERY accurate
→ most precise delivery without intubation of a patient

A message from Kristine, founder of NurseInTheMaking
My name is Kristine and I survived nursing school…and you can too!
Nurse In The Making was inspired during my time in nursing school. I immediately struggled and decided to create my own study guides. These guides have helped me personally as well as many others make nursing school just a little more manageable.I hope you find comfort knowing that everyone struggles at times. Nursing school is emotionally and physically draining. I hope these informative, clean, and simple guides help you navigate through all the information because there is A LOT of it in nursing school.

Happy Studying Future Nurses. Don't forget to enjoy the journey!
