Importance
The importance of acquiring a Wall-Mounted Oxygen Regulator (BS System) lies in ensuring a stable medical oxygen supply without fluctuations. Precision in this device means the patient receives the exact prescribed dose, which is critical for those with respiratory insufficiency. Additionally, the included humidification system reduces patient discomfort related to throat and nasal dryness, elevating the quality of care and enhancing patient comfort during treatment.
How to Use
- Connect the regulator to the designated BS oxygen wall outlet, ensuring a secure click-lock for safety.
- Fill the humidifier bottle with distilled water up to the marked level (Min/Max), then secure it to the bottom of the regulator.
- Attach the patient's oxygen tubing to the outlet on the humidifier bottle.
- Turn the control knob gradually to set the required flow rate (LPM) as per the physician's instructions.
- Ensure the bottle is cleaned, dried, and the water changed regularly to maintain sterilization standards.
FAQs about the British Oxygen Regulator
Can it be used with American standard (DISS) outlets?
This specific model is designed for the British BS system. If your facility uses the American standard, you will require an adapter or a compatible model to ensure proper fitment.
Why is a wall-mounted system preferred over cylinder-attached regulators?
Wall-mounted systems save space in the room, ensure a continuous flow from a central source without the worry of a cylinder running out, and are significantly safer in busy hospital environments.
Is the included bottle sterilizable?
Yes, the bottle is made from high-quality medical-grade plastic that withstands repeated cleaning and sterilization. It is designed for easy assembly and disassembly to guarantee respiratory hygiene.
