OXYGEN REQUIREMENTS WITH CONSTANT FLOW EQUIPMENT.
Abstract
The flow of oxygen which is needed to maintain 95 per cent arterial saturation in an individual using the A-8B oxygen mask has been determined for three degrees of physical activity in three individuals at the altitudes of 10,000, 15,000, 20,000, 25,000, 30,000 and 35,000 feet. The increase in oxygen requirements with altitude and with physical activity followed a certain regularity; these regularities have been formulated. (Author)
