not passed urine in the past 12 to 18 hours (for catheterised patients, passed 0.5 ml/kg/hour to 1 ml/kg/hour) If O2 therapy is being used maximally (15L high flow) and oxygen levels continue to drop, involve intensive care with a view to non-invasive ventilation or intubation and ventilation Oxygen will be prescribed according to a target saturation range. The system of prescribing target saturation aims to achieve a specified outcome, rather than specifying the oxygen delivery method alone.

When anyone breathes in, air has to get from the atmosphere to our lungs. The speed in which the air moves (or flows) from the atmosphere (point A) to our lungs (point B) is known as a flow rate. Peak inspiratory flow is the fastest flow rate point on a given breath to get air from point A to point B. Remember over-oxygenation can also be dangerous termed “oxygen toxicity”. This can cause vasoconstriction, worsen outcomes, and even cause seizures.

Referral may be a formal referral process or discussion with specialist in intensive care or intensive care outreach team. I think the idea of saline nebs is that they turn mucous thiner and that will help to mobilize them, isn’t it? arrange for immediate review by the senior clinical decision maker to assess the person and think about alternative diagnoses to sepsis And this is where people start saying “it depends on the oxygen flow rate”. Despite this being true when we are discussing the FiO2 that the person is inhaling, that is not actually the question that I asked.

give a broad-spectrum antimicrobial at the maximum recommended dose without delay (within 1 hour of identifying that they meet any high risk criteria in an acute hospital setting) in line with recommendations in section 1.7 antibiotic treatment in people with suspected sepsis Ventilators have various settings which control the respiratory rate, the IPAP, the EPAP, the inspiratory flow rate, and the FIO2%. Humidified oxygen is most effective when the gas reaching the alveoli is at body temperature (37ºC) with a relative humidity of 100%. Non-rebreather masks allow you to receive a higher concentration of oxygen than with standard masks. They’re generally only used for short-term increases in oxygenation.My second question for you is this: what is the FiO2 of the oxygen being delivered through the flow meter as soon as you turn it on? Wean by small increments (e.g. from a yellow Venturi/35% FiO 2 to a white Venturi/28% FiO 2). This is usually performed by nursing staff, but ensure you document clear instructions. In addition, give clear instructions to nursing staff for escalation if a patient’s oxygen saturations drop below a certain level (e.g. <92%).

Can be used for long-term oxygen use, whilst allowing the child to vocalise and eat. The concentration is often not controlled resulting in a low inspiratory oxygen concentration. The use of nasal cannulae can cause dermatitis and mucosal drying (Joint Formulary Committee, 2006). Nasal cannula oxygen does not need to be humidified.
