If you are providing 2 liters per minute of oxygen to a patient what percentage of oxygen are they breathing?
Human lungs are 2 liters in volume by average. So... Average breath rate is 12 breaths per minute. In one minute the patient would take in 24 liters of air. You are supplying 2 liters of pure oxygen + 4.8 liters from air (20% of the 24 liters (Percent oxygen in dry air)) = 6.8 liters of Oxygen per minute. 6.8 liters oxygen / 24 liters intake = 28.3% Oxygen or you can look at the table given by the books at http://www.fpnotebook.com/ER/Procedure/LwFlwOxygn.htm Nasal Cannula, Flow 0 liters per minute: 21% (Room Air), Flow 2 liters per minute: 29% But I like the mathematical method. That's just me!

Take example that we r providing 2L/min of oxygen to a ptHuman lungs are 2 liters in volume by average. So...Average breath rate is 12 breaths per minute.In one minute the patient would take in 24 liters of air. You are supplying 2 liters of pure oxygen + 4.8 liters from air (20% of the 24 liters (Percent oxygen in dry air)) = 6.8 liters of Oxygen per minute.6.8 liters oxygen / 24 liters intake = 28.3% Oxygen

How long will a ml6 oxygen cylinder last?
An ML6 oxygen cylinder, when "charged" to normal pressures, holds 170 liters of oxygen. How long that will last depends on a number of factors. If the flow is set to 2 liters per minute continuous then it will last less than 1 and 1/2 hours. If an oxygen conserving device is used (they give the gas in pluses when breaths are taken) it can last over 4 hours.
