Connecting/Positioning the Nasal Cannula

To ensure proper breath detection and oxygen delivery,
Invacare recommends using a 7 ft (2.1 m) cannula. Tubing
length not exceeding 25 ft (7.6 m) can be used with
continuous flow.
NOTE: For this procedure, refer to FIGURE 6.2.
NOTE: The tubing/cannula must be connected to the transportable oxygen
concentrator oxygen outlet as shown below.
NOTE: Replace the nasal cannula on a regular basis. Check with your equipment
provider or physician to determine how often the cannula should be replaced.
NOTE: DO NOT share cannulas between patients.
1. Connect the nasal cannula to the transportable oxygen concentrator
oxygen outlet port (DETAIL "A").
2. Place the cannula over your ears and position the prongs in your nose
as instructed by your health care provider or cannula manufacturer
