4.7 Therapy with oxygen supply

4.7.1 Supplying oxygen
Warning!
• If oxygen is being supplied to the respiratory flow, smoking and naked flames
are forbidden. Risk of fire. The oxygen can accumulate in clothing, bed linen
or hair. It can only be removed by thorough ventilation.
• To supply oxygen, use only the therapy device connection provided for this
purpose. The therapy device has a safety valve which shuts off the oxygen
supply in the event of a fault, otherwise the oxygen supply cannot be stopped
automatically if a fault occurs. Never supply oxygen via masks or the T-adapter.
Note:
Supplying oxygen via a connection not intended for this purpose leads to an
erroneous volume display, as the oxygen flow cannot be included in the
measurement.
A supply rate of max. 15 l/min at < 1000 hPa pressure at the inlet for the oxygen supply is
permitted.
Use an oxygen sensor to monitor oxygen supply.
The oxygen source must have an independent flow regulation device. Ensure that you only
set the oxygen flow rate prescribed by the doctor on your oxygen supply device. It is
essential in this case to follow the safety instructions for handling oxygen as well as the
instructions for use of the oxygen device used.
Caution!
If the oxygen is humidified before being supplied, a tank with an overpressure valve
must be used, otherwise an overpressure will result in the event of faulty operation
which could lead to the humidification tank bursting or to the oxygen supply tubes
slipping off.
