🗑
What is Hypoxemia?   The decreased partial pressure amount of oxygen present in the human blood.  
🗑
When the 30% of oxygen usage drops then this creates what in the blood?   Hypoxemia.  
🗑
What is Hypoxia?   Is an abnormal low oxygen available to the body or individual tissue or organ.  
🗑

🗑
What is Human Homeostasis?   Is the body's ability to physiologically regulate its inner environment to ensure its stability in response to fluctuations in the outside environment.  
🗑
What can be indicators for the need of extra oxygen?   Increased cardiopulmonary workload, heart rate, blood pressure, and patients work of breathing.  
🗑
What % of Nitrogen keeps the lungs inflated?   78%  
🗑
What 2 units are oxygen measured in?   Liter Per Minute(LPM) and Percent Concentration (%).  
🗑
What 3 things must you have to deliver oxygen?   1. Oxygen delivery device 2. Gas source 3. Means by which the two can be connected.  
🗑
What color is an Oxygen Flowmeter?   Green.  
🗑
What color is an Air Flowmeter?   Yellow.  
🗑
When should an oxygen device be removed from a patient?   Under no circumstances should an oxygen device be completely removed from the patient for the purpose of taking a radiograph without the consent or supervision of a physician, respiratory care practitioner, or attending nurse.  
🗑
When transporting a patient with an oxygen cylinder what amount of delivered oxygen should the patient get?   The amount should match what the patient was receiving at his/her bedside.  
🗑
Oxygen therapy is broken down into 2 parts what are they?   Low flow and high flow.  
🗑
What is a low flow?   Is a variable-oxygen concentration, a device that does not meet the entire inspiratory demand or needs of a patient.  
🗑
What is a high flow?   A device that meets or exceeds the inspiratory demands or needs of the patient.  
🗑
Which part high or low does not allow us to know the exact amount of oxygen the patient is receiving?   Low flow.  
🗑
