help on part F

F. You are working with another patient when a fellow student asks for your help. He has a tracheostomy collar, the analyzer reads 65%, What are some potential reasons for this patient on a tracheostomy collar with a nebulizer at 40%. When he analyzes the set up at the discrepancy? (List a minimum of three,) G. Departmental policy requires the use of double nebulizers when a patient requires > 50% Oxygen. Your co-worker wants to put Mr. Fields on 100 % oxygen so he sets each nebulizer at 50%. He states "50% +50% = 100 % , " Do you support this idea? Why or why not? How would you explain your reasoning to your coworker? No betause you dart add theperent it 15 ust the So his flow would be Stll be a 50% Sume

Answer 1

F, Most of the nondisposable oxygen and aerosolized system provide fixed inspired oxygen fractions for 40%,60%, and 100%, it varies in size of the entrainment port. when a collar is turned the size of the entrainment port is decreased and inspired oxygen fractions are increased. Jet nebulizer provides set inspired o2 fraction, it increases when the size of the entrainment port is decreased.
