Ambulance Oxygen System

Importance and Application

The ambulance oxygen system is a critical component in emergency medical vehicles, providing essential oxygen therapy to patients during transport. This system ensures that patients receive the necessary oxygen to maintain adequate blood oxygen levels, crucial for those experiencing respiratory distress, cardiac events, or trauma.

Usage in Different Ambulance Types

The oxygen system is used in all types of ambulances, including:

  • Basic Life Support (BLS) Ambulances: Equipped with essential oxygen supply for patients with non-life-threatening conditions.
  • Advanced Life Support (ALS) Ambulances: Provide more sophisticated oxygen delivery systems for critically ill patients.
  • Mobile Intensive Care Units (MICUs): Feature advanced oxygen systems for patients requiring intensive care during transport.

Types of Oxygen Equipment

The ambulance oxygen system includes various types of equipment to ensure a continuous and controlled supply of oxygen:

  • Portable Oxygen Tanks: Allow for mobility and flexibility in patient care.
  • Fixed Oxygen Delivery Systems: Installed in the ambulance for stable and reliable oxygen supply.
  • Regulators and Flow Meters: Ensure precise control of oxygen flow to meet the specific needs of each patient.

These systems are designed to be reliable and easy to operate, enabling healthcare providers to stabilize patients and manage respiratory emergencies effectively while en route to medical facilities.

 

Detailed Specifications of the Regulator

The regulator used in the ambulance oxygen system is suitable for both steel and aluminum cylinders of 2 liters, 5 liters, and 10 liters. These cylinders can also be used by first aid and search-rescue teams, as well as patients receiving home health care services.

  • Versatility: The oxygen cylinders, particularly the 2 and 5-liter sizes, are vital for healthcare professionals. They allow precise adjustment of oxygen levels for patients in need of emergency respiratory support until they are transported to the ambulance.
  • Manometers: The regulator features two manometers:
    • One shows the amount of oxygen given to the patient in liters per minute (L/min), with increments displayed on the indicant in steps of five.
    • The other indicates the pressure/fullness of the oxygen cylinder in bars, with a scale up to 100 that is easily readable by ambulance staff.
  • Ease of Use: You can easily attach and detach the regulator from the oxygen cylinders using a 32 key. The outer material features nickel plating for durability. It includes an on-off valve to adjust the flow rate as needed. One end of the regulator connects to the cylinder, while the other end has a mechanism for attaching an oxygen hose and mask for patient use.

 

This comprehensive setup ensures that healthcare providers can deliver effective and timely oxygen therapy to patients in various emergency situations.
