The physician orders supplemental oxygen for a client with a respiratory problem. To provide the highest possible oxygen concentration, the nurse expects to use which oxygen delivery device
A.Nasal cannula.
B.Venturi mask.
C.Partial rebreathing mask.
D.Nonrebreathing mask.
参考答案:D
解析:A nonrebreathing mask provides the highest possible oxygen concentration--up to 95%. A nasal cannula doesn't deliver concentrations above 40%. A Venturi mask delivers precise concentrations of 24% to 44%, regardless of the client's respiratory pattern, because the same amount of room air always enters the mask opening. A partial rebreathing mask delivers oxygen concentrations up to 90%.
