A respiratory therapy unit dose system in a 500-bed hospital
Abstract:
A comprehensive unit dose distribution system for respiratory medications is described with emphasis on generalized design principles. This system may be tailored to meet the needs of any institution. Methods for receipt and interpretation of the physician's orders, the profiling system, handling of initial orders, monitoring medications, preparation of unit dose respiratory medications, and routine distribution of orders are covered. This unit dose system allows the pharmacy to assume full responsibility for the procurement, storage, and distribution of all respiratory medication. The pharmacist can provide the respiratory therapist with standardized, sterile quality-controlled medications that are ready to administer. Controlled cost and equitable charging procedures are also provided.

Oxygen Delivering System I: Nasal Cannula and Face Mask
Nasal Cannula
A nasal cannula is a lightweight tube split at one end into two prongs and placed in the nostrils. It is typically used to deliver low to medium levels of oxygen.
Suggested flow rate: The suggested flow rate for a nasal cannula typically ranges between 1 and 6 L/min.
Oxygen percentage setting:...
Oxygen Delivering System II: Venturi Mask and Transtracheal Oxygen
Venturi Mask
The Venturi mask, named after the Venturi effect, is designed to deliver precise oxygen concentrations. It consists of a large tube with an oxygen inlet that narrows down, causing a pressure drop that pulls air in through adjustable side ports. The mask is a lightweight,...
