Delivering what matters where it matters.
- Keep space around it. Keep it away from walls and curtains so air can flow and it doesn’t overheat.
- Clean the filter as the manual says. A dirty filter makes the machine work harder and can lower the oxygen it delivers.
- No smoking or open flames nearby. Oxygen makes fires start more easily and burn faster.
- Alarm sounding? Report it at once. Check the patient first, then report the alarm and what it said.
Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions and your hospital’s procedures. If in doubt, call us.
