Oxygen given to a patient

Explanation:

  • Oxygen went through water before given to. a patient Because unadulterated Oxygen is very drying and can harm or disturb mucous layers, in this way Oxygen must be saturated by going it through water before it is regulated to a patient.
  • The oxygen in tank or cylinder is concentrated via a physical way. Through this method, the oxygen will be too dry to our breathing system. It is much drier than the normal air we breathe everyday. To protect our throat and lungs, we need to moist the oxygen before we inhale. To let the oxygen go through water is a quite efficient way to moist it.
