**RSPT 1410** **Unit Two Review** Characteristics of medical gases **Medical Gas** **Symbol** **Supports Combustion** **Tank Color** **Classification** ----------------- ------------ ------------------------- ---------------- -------------------- Oxygen Air Heliox Carbon Dioxide Nitric Oxide Medical O2 production ( 2 methods) Bulk/Liquid- Homecare/Oxygen concentrators- FDA purity standard Gas cylinder: Markings/Labeling How are they tested & how often? (Slide 13) Which are considered small cylinders & type of cylinder valve? Which are considered large cylinders & type of cylinder valve? How do you clean cylinder valve outlet & what is it referred to? Pin positions: Air O2 Cylinders Measured by: Gas Liquid Cylinder conversion factors Be able to calculate how long an E/H/ or liquid cylinder would last Safety Indexed Connector Systems (Three & which is used with Small/Large Cylinders Slide 30) Bulk oxygen Gas supply systems (Three Types Slide 30) Alternating What does it consist of Cylinder manifold system with reserve supply Bulk gas with reserve Zone valves when would you typically use these? Station Outlets provide connection for? Regulating Gas pressure and flow (Slide 32) Reducing valve Flowmeter Regulator Flow control devices (Gravity dependent/independent) Flow restrictor Bourdon gauge Thorpe Tube Most commonly used & how do you know if it is compensated/uncompensated? General goals and clinical objectives of oxygen therapy (Slide 45) Assessing need for O2 therapy- Documented hypoxemia (Slide 46) Precautions/ possible complications and hazards of O2 therapy (Slide 48) Oxygen toxicity (Slide 49) What does it primarily affect Exposure Alveolar Oxygen Equation (Slide 59) Oxygen Therapy- Three basic designs **Know flow and FiO2 ranges for all O2 delivery systems** Low flow systems (Flow and FiO2 range for all) What devices are low flow? Advantages Reservoir systems (Flow and FiO2 range for all) Cannulas (Types) High flow systems (Slide 68, 70, 71,) What devices included? Air entrainment mask Understand air: O2 ratios, total flow, FiO2, amount of air entrained Troubleshooting air entrainment What happens if obstruct vents? Know Air:Oxygen Mixing Blenders Requires separate?
