SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

• Oxygen is a nonflammable gas, but does support combustion. Follow your
homecare provider's instructions for the care and safe operation of your oxygen
delivery system (e.g., oxygen cylinder, oxygen concentrator, liquid oxygen).
• Do not smoke or allow anyone to smoke around you.
• Keep oxygen equipment at least 6 feet away from flames or any
heat source.
• Do not use petroleum based products, or oil-based creams and
lotions in or around your nose.
• Do not use flammable products such as aerosol sprays, cleaning
products near your oxygen.
• Avoid using electrical equipment that may cause a spark
(i.e., electric razor).
• Use oxygen as prescribed by your doctor.
• The total length of your nasal cannula and oxygen tubing should not exceed
57 feet to ensure there is enough pressure to deliver prescribed oxygen.
• Do not kink, bend or tie your oxygen tubing,
• Do not set anything on your tubing that may obstruct flow.
• Keep excess tubing loosely coiled and out of the way to prevent tripping on oxygen
tubing.
• Do not place oxygen tubing or nasal cannula under blankets, bedsheets, rugs, etc.
• Use caution so your oxygen tubing does not become entangled in your furniture.
• Keep an extra nasal cannula and other oxygen supplies available for use.
• Do not let children or pets play with your oxygen equipment.
• Recommend use of swivel adapter to reduce the possibility of twisting for nasal
cannula and supply tubing longer than 14 feet.
