Disposable Multi-Vent Portable Medical Oxygen Adjustable Venturi Mask
1. Disposable Design:
- The mask is intended for single-use, and it is disposed of after
each use. Disposable masks help maintain hygiene and prevent
cross-contamination.
2. Multi-Vent:
- The mask is equipped with multiple vents or openings, allowing
the adjustment of the oxygen concentration delivered to the
patient. Each vent corresponds to a different concentration level.
3. Portable:
- The term "portable" suggests that the mask is designed for easy
transport and use in various settings, including clinical
environments, ambulances, or other healthcare settings.
4. Adjustable Venturi System:
- The mask features an adjustable Venturi system, which allows
healthcare professionals to select and control the precise oxygen
concentration delivered to the patient. This is achieved by
adjusting the size of the vent openings.
Key Features and Functions:
- Venturi System:
- The Venturi system uses different-sized vents to control the flow
of oxygen and air, resulting in variable concentrations of oxygen.
The specific concentration is selected based on the patient's
oxygen requirements.
- Color-Coded Vents:
- The vents are often color-coded to correspond to specific oxygen
concentrations. This coding simplifies the selection process for
healthcare providers.
- Elastic Straps:
- Elastic straps secure the mask in place on the patient's face,
ensuring a comfortable and snug fit.
-Adjustable Nose Clip:
- An adjustable nose clip is included to enhance the fit of the
mask on the patient's face.
- Oxygen Tubing:
- The mask is connected to an oxygen source through tubing. The
adjustable Venturi system allows for the precise delivery of oxygen
to meet the patient's needs.
How It Works:
1. Oxygen Source:
- The mask is connected to an oxygen source, such as an oxygen
cylinder or wall outlet.
2. Venturi System Adjustment:
- Healthcare professionals can select the desired oxygen
concentration by adjusting the size of the vent openings on the
mask.
3.Oxygen Delivery:
- The adjustable Venturi system controls the ratio of oxygen to air
delivered through the mask, ensuring the patient receives the
prescribed concentration.
Considerations:
- Prescribed Oxygen Concentration:
- The specific oxygen concentration is prescribed by a healthcare
provider based on the patient's condition and oxygen needs.
- Monitoring:
- Patients using adjustable Venturi masks may require continuous
monitoring to ensure they receive the correct oxygen concentration.
- Disposable Nature:
- Since the mask is disposable, it should not be reused to prevent
the risk of contamination.
- Color-Coding Recognition:
- Healthcare professionals should be familiar with the color-coded
system to quickly identify the intended oxygen concentration.
Feature:
-Made of medical grade PVC.
-Transparent and soft vinyl for patients' comfort.
-Visual patients' assessment adjustable nose clip assures
comfortable fit adults.
-Tubing length could be customized, medium concentration with 7th
anti-crush tubing.
-DEHP free and Latex free

How much oxygen can you give through a Venturi mask?
The amount of oxygen delivered through a Venturi mask is determined by the Venturi system, which includes different-sized vent openings or adapters. These adapters are color-coded to represent specific oxygen concentrations. The precise oxygen percentage delivered depends on the flow rate of oxygen and the size of the selected Venturi adapter.
Here are some common color-coded Venturi adapters and their corresponding approximate oxygen concentrations:
- White (24%): Flow rate of 4-6 liters per minute (L/min)
- Blue (28%): Flow rate of 4-8 L/min
- Yellow (35%): Flow rate of 8-10 L/min
- Red (40%): Flow rate of 10 L/min
- Green (60%): Flow rate of 12-15 L/min
These percentages are approximate and can vary based on the design and manufacturer of the Venturi mask. The oxygen concentration is adjusted by selecting the appropriate color-coded Venturi adapter and adjusting the oxygen flow rate to achieve the desired concentration.
Venturi system masks can deliver between 24% and 60% oxygen, depending on the connector used.
What does a Venturi mask do for a patient?
The Venturi mask, as all the aforementioned low-flow systems,
provides oxygen at flow rates that are lower than patients'
inspiratory demands; thus, when the patient's inspiratory flow
exceeds the gas flow rate from the mask, room air is entrained.
1. Precision Oxygen Delivery:
- The Venturi mask provides a way to deliver a specific and
controlled concentration of oxygen to the patient. This is crucial
for patients with respiratory conditions that require precise
oxygen therapy to maintain adequate oxygen levels in their blood.
2. Adjustable Oxygen Concentrations:
- The Venturi system includes color-coded adapters, each
corresponding to a specific oxygen concentration. Healthcare
professionals can select the appropriate adapter based on the
patient's oxygen therapy prescription and adjust the flow rate to
achieve the desired concentration.
3. Tailored Oxygen Therapy:
- The ability to adjust oxygen concentrations makes the Venturi
mask suitable for patients with varying respiratory needs. It
allows healthcare providers to tailor the oxygen therapy to the
specific requirements of each patient.
4. Management of Chronic Respiratory Conditions:
- Venturi masks are often used in the management of chronic
respiratory conditions such as chronic obstructive pulmonary
disease (COPD), asthma, or other respiratory diseases. The precise
delivery of oxygen helps alleviate symptoms and improve oxygenation
in patients with compromised lung function.
5. Prevention of Hyperoxia or Hypoxia:
- By providing a controlled and adjustable concentration of oxygen,
the Venturi mask helps prevent both hyperoxia (excessive oxygen
levels) and hypoxia (insufficient oxygen levels). Maintaining an
appropriate oxygen concentration is crucial for the patient's
overall well-being.
6. Optimal Oxygen Saturation:
- The goal of using a Venturi mask is to achieve and maintain
optimal oxygen saturation levels in the patient's blood. This is
monitored through pulse oximetry, which measures the percentage of
oxygen saturation in the arterial blood.
7. Use in Acute and Chronic Settings:
- Venturi masks can be used in various healthcare settings,
including acute care in hospitals, emergency departments, and
chronic care in outpatient settings. They are versatile and
suitable for both short-term and long-term oxygen therapy.
What is the difference between venturi mask and oxygen mask?
Nasal cannulas and simple face masks are typically used to deliver
low levels of oxygen. Another type of mask, the Venturi mask,
delivers oxygen at higher levels. Sometimes nasal cannulas are also
used to deliver high levels of oxygen.
