How Do I Wear the Oxymizer Nasal Cannula?

  1. Gently uncoil the tube. With the front of the Pendant facing away from you, hold the oxymizer device.
  2. The prongs of the nasal cannula oxymizer should be placed so your nostrils can easily accommodate the cannula. The prongs should reach deep within and point backward toward your nose.
  3. Place the nasal prongs to your nostrils and guide the tubing on your cheekbones.
  4. Loop the tubing around your ears to make sure it fits snugly and comfortably on either side. Avoid letting the tube completely encircle your neck. This could present a choking risk.
  5. To connect the cannula tube's two sides, attach the tubing clip. To keep the tubing in place, raise the clip from behind your chin.
  6. Under your throat, the pendant section should lie against your chest. Sometimes, a good idea is to tuck the tubing under your shirt or blouse.
  7. Connect your oxygen source to the female connection.
  8. Turn on the oxygen and adjust the flow rate in accordance with your doctor's or other healthcare provider's instructions.
