What is an Oxygen Mask?
An Oxygen Mask is a medical device that is used to deliver oxygen to a patient requiring supplemental oxygen therapy. It is commonly used in hospitals, clinics, and other healthcare settings. The mask allows a patient to inhale a higher concentration of oxygen than what is present in the ambient air.
The mask is designed to cover the mouth and nose of the patient, and it is intended to be connected through tubing to an oxygen source, such as an oxygen tank or concentrator.
Oxygen therapy masks are available in different styles and designs, including simple oxygen masks, partial rebreather masks, non-rebreather masks, and venturi masks. Adult oxygen masks and pediatric oxygen masks are available, in sizes from extra small (neonates) to extra large (adult). The mask is made from medical-grade polyvinyl chloride (PVC).
AdvaCare Pharma is a reputable global supplier of Oxygen Masks, and we are committed to providing top-quality products to distributors and medical professionals worldwide. We prioritize the production of reliable and cost-effective medical disposables that meet the highest standards of quality and safety.
Product Specifications
Type
Simple Oxygen Mask
Simple Oxygen Mask is designed to cover the nose and mouth and deliver oxygen directly to the patient's airway. It is manufactured from lightweight materials like PVC (polyvinyl chloride). The mask is equipped with a nose clip and elastic strap that allows for a secure and adjustable fit to ensure proper oxygen delivery.
For the simple oxygen mask, the recommended flow rate ranges from 5-10L/min. The FiO2 (Fraction of Inspired Oxygen) delivered by the mask is typically set between 40% and 60% to ensure effective oxygenation.
Partial Rebreather Mask
Partial Rebreather Mask has a reservoir bag without a one-way valve so that exhaled air mixes with pure oxygen in the reservoir.
The partial rebreather mask provides higher oxygen concentrations compared to a simple mask. The oxygen concentration is high but not precise, with approximate values ranging from 70% at 7L/min, 80% at 8L/min, and 90-95% at 9-15L/min. This mask is commonly used in situations where a higher concentration of oxygen is required.
Non-Rebreather Mask
Non-Rebreather Mask has a reservoir bag that is equipped with a one-way valve, which prevents the mixture of air with pure oxygen. This valve ensures that exhaled air does not enter the reservoir, allowing for the supply of almost 100% oxygen to the patient.
The non-rebreather mask is used in medical settings where a precise and high concentration of oxygen is necessary, such as during resuscitation attempts or in critical care situations.
Venturi Mask
Venturi Mask is a specialized oxygen delivery device that provides precise oxygen concentrations to the patient.
This mask is equipped with a venturi valve that allows for precise control of oxygen concentrations. It uses 100% oxygen at various flow rates and different sizes of entrainment ports for room air to produce precise oxygen concentrations. Color-coded valves have been included for the following configurations: 24% [blue valve: 4L/min] 28% [yellow: 4L/min] 31% [white: 6L/min] 35% [green: 8L/min] 40% [pink: 8L/min] 50% [orange: 10L/min] 60% [red: 15L/min]

Uses
What is an Oxygen Mask used for?
It's used to deliver oxygen to a person who requires supplemental oxygen therapy.
How is an Oxygen Mask used?
To use an oxygen mask, the mask is securely fitted over the patient's nose and mouth before connecting it to an oxygen source. The oxygen flow can be adjusted based on the therapy requirements.
Are there any special storage instructions for an Oxygen Mask?
Oxygen masks should be stored in a clean and dry environment that is out of direct sunlight, heat sources, and moisture. It is recommended to keep them in a designated storage area or container to protect them from dust, dirt, and potential damage. It is advisable to store them in a location that is easily accessible and organized to ensure they are readily available when needed.
How should used Oxygen Masks be properly disposed of?
It is important to consult guidelines from the local waste department or healthcare facility for proper disposal procedures. Usually, this involves putting used oxygen masks in a designated medical waste container.
FAQs
What are the uses of each type of Oxygen Mask?
The simple oxygen mask is a basic mask that is suitable for low to moderate oxygen flow rates. The partial rebreather mask is equipped with a reservoir bag, which allows the patient to partially inhale their exhaled breath with oxygen from the supply. The non-rebreather mask has a one-way valve that prevents the inhalation of exhaled air and is able to deliver higher oxygen concentrations. The venturi mask is designed for precise oxygen delivery, using color-coded adapters or valves to achieve specific oxygen concentrations. It is commonly used in situations where accurate oxygen titration is necessary.
What are the differences in the colors of Oxygen Masks?
The color coding can be used to assist in quickly identifying and selecting the appropriate mask for the patient's needs.
Can Oxygen Masks be used on pediatric patients?
Pediatric oxygen masks are available in smaller sizes and have been designed to fit the unique facial anatomy of children. It is vital to choose the correct size and fit to ensure effective oxygen delivery.
