1, oxygen mode
usually needs to pay attention to the appropriate oxygen mode according to the patient's condition, mainly including mask oxygen, catheter oxygen, non-invasive ventilator oxygen, etc. to correct the state of hypoxia.
2, oxygen flow
is usually given continuously high flow, high concentration of oxygen, for patients with catheter mode, need to control at 6- 8 L/min, and take mask oxygen, control at 8-10L/min.
