OXYGEN SUPPLEMENTATION<br />

• Reliable oxygen supply is essential for anaesthesia or any<br />

seriously ill patient<br />

• Oxygen concentrators are the most suitable, economical<br />

way to provide oxygen; few cylinders in case <strong>of</strong> power<br />

failure<br />

• Whichever source <strong>of</strong> oxygen, an effective system is needed<br />

for maintenance <strong>and</strong> repairs<br />

• Clinical staff need training in how to use oxygen safely,<br />

effectively, economically<br />
