How many liters of oxygen is 30 percent?

Each litre is equivelant to approximately 3%. 35% Oxygen is about 5 litresThis math here is only correct if you are using a nasal cannula to deliver the oxygen. Respiratory therapy only uses this as an estimate since the cannula isn't the most effective oxygen delivery system but is the most comfortable for a patient.21% Fio2 is room Air, that is we breath in normally, for anyone without any supplemental Oxygen.The first 1 liter is 3%Fio2, which is 21% +3% =24%Fio2, thereafter it is 4% to each liter flow of oxygenFirst liter of Oxygen which is 1Lpm =3% + 21%(Room Air) Total = 24% Fio2 Add 4% for each liter flow there 2Lpm= 28% Fio23Lpm= 32% Fio2Save4Lpm= 36% Fio25Lpm= 40% Fio26Lpm= 44% Fio2For a Venturi Mask which is more effective especially for patients with COPD the Fio2 settings are as follows:White cap:35% FiO2 set lpm at 940% FiO2 set lpm at 1250% FiO2 set lpm at 15Green cap:24% FiO2 set lpm at 3lpm26% FiO2 set lpm at 3lpm28% FiO2 set lpm at 6lpm30% FiO2 set lpm at 6 lpm

How positive pressure ventilation effect fi02?

positive pressue ventilation is usually provided by a mechanical ventilator. A blend of oxygen and air coming out of the ventilator. The FiO2 is set on the ventilator. The person gets the FiO2 set on the ventilator.The manual positive pressure ventilation is by resuscitating with a self inflating bag usually provided with oxygen. FiO2 is fractional inspired oxygen and does not change with positive pressure ventilation or negative pressure ventilation. Manual bagging FiO2 may be changing according to supply of oxygen, inhalation (speed and volume) and frequency of bagging.
