I hav...Which also brings around the mask situation. I have absolutely no problem with placing a pt on a 31% Venti for the night if they're a serious mouth breather if that makes everyone feel better. It certainly makes ME feel better knowing exactly how much O2 going rather than coming around finding a simple mask that someone's either flushed out to 15 l/m or is very proud of themselves for "weaning them down to 2 l/m for you guys!". But I do find that a lot of RN's think a mask at any O2 level is worse than a n/c until I explain to them that 31% is basically the equivalent of 3 l/m n/c.Glennahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17528360147805366086noreply@blogger.com
