Abstract
SummaryPhysiological and clinical evidence suggest that the hypoxic hypoxia of respiratory failure in patients with chronic lung disease should be managed by using inspired oxygen concentrations in the range 24 to 33 per cent.Conventional methods of oxygen administration do not permit the requisite control but it can be simply achieved using the principle of high air flow with oxygen enrichment (HAFOE).Methods of implementing HAFOE using the Venturi principle are described and our present practice outlined.
