Abstract:
Objective To discuss influence of the humidification or non-humidification on oxygen humidity during low-mid volume oxygen inhalation through nasal cannula.Methods A total of 160 patients with low-mid volume oxygen inhalation through nasal cannula for≥12 hours were randomly assigned to the humidified group and the un-humidified group with 80 patients in each.Recording the chases of oxygen humidity from the humidifying bottles.at the same time the indoor air humidity was also observed.Influence of the humidification or non-humidification on oxygen humidity during low-mid volume oxygen inhalation through nasal cannula was observed.Results There was not significant difference in oxygen humidity between the two groups.Conclusions Routine humidifying is not necessary in low-mid volume oxygen inhalation through nasal cannula.
