A member asked:
What happens when you put a high volume oxygen mask on a person whose tank is set at 3 in an 18 hr period?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
They could die: It is not a good idea to change the oxygen setting. Sometimes increasing the oxygen flow can shut down the respiratory drive and the person can stop breathing.
