    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-rebreather_mask

    A non-rebreather mask (NRB, non-rebreather, non-rebreather facemask, etc.) is a device used in medicine to assist in the delivery of oxygen therapy.A NRB requires that the patient can breathe unassisted, but unlike a low-flow nasal cannula, the NRB allows for the delivery of higher concentrations of oxygen.

    It is termed "non-invasive" because it is delivered without a need for tracheal intubation. [49] non-rebreather mask A non-rebreather mask (NRB) is a device used to deliver supplemental oxygen to a spontaneously breathing person. An NRB allows the delivery of relatively high concentrations of oxygen while using a constant flow rate, with ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heated_humidified_high...

    In high-flow therapy, clinicians can deliver higher FiO 2 than is possible with typical oxygen delivery therapy without the use of a non-rebreather mask or tracheal intubation. [17] Some patients requiring respiratory support for bronchospasm benefit using air delivered by high-flow therapy without additional oxygen. [18]

    Non-rebreather mask, an oro-nasal mask used in medicine to assist in the delivery of oxygen therapy; Oxygen mask, which covers the mouth and nose of a patient undergoing oxygen therapy as first aid or longer-term treatment, or a passenger in an aircraft which has depressurised at altitude; Continuous positive airway pressure mask; Anesthetic mask

  6. Rebreather - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rebreather

    Closed circuit rebreather: A closed circuit rebreather adds oxygen to the loop gas to make up for oxygen used by metabolic processes. These processes do not use diluent gas, so none is added unless the volume of the loop is reduced for other reasons, such as intentional dumping, flushing, or an ambient pressure change.

  7. High altitude breathing apparatus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_altitude_breathing...

    This is an efficient system for gas use, and less gas needs to be carried, but it relies on electronics and batteries which do not last well in the low temperatures. It also less bulky and obstructs the view less than the rebreather mask systems [27] The system was found to be unreliable and Summit reverted to the constant flow system. The ...

  8. Breathing apparatus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breathing_apparatus

    Rebreather systems can be closed or semi-closed circuit, have a pendulum or loop flow path configuration, and the gas can be circulated by the breathing of the user through non-return valves, (almost all self-contained units), by the energy of the injected fresh gas, (Dräger Modell 1915 "Bubikopf", DM20 and DM40, [16] and US Navy Mk V helium ...

  9. Venturi mask - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Venturi_mask

    Venturi masks are used to deliver a specified fraction of inspired oxygen (F I O 2).Many masks are color-coded and have a recommended oxygen flow specified on them. [5] When used with this oxygen flow, the mask should provide the specified F I O 2.
