-Require oxygen 24 hours a day; therefore care is taken to plan
administration around patient needs.
-Patients with decreased tissue oxygenation benefit from controlled
oxygen administration. Long-term oxygen treatment can improve survival
in it.
, · Humidity prevents drying of nasal and oral mucous membranes and
airway secretions. Flowmeters with smaller calibrations may be required
for patients requiring low-dose oxygen.

, -Aseptic insertion.
-Limit the use of indwelling catheters to essential conditions and
removing them as soon as medically indicated.
-Use for acute urinary retention, accurate intake and output
measurement in critically ill patients, perioperative preparation for select
surgeries, healing of open sacral or perineal wounds in incontinent
patients, patients requiring prolonged bedrest, and comfort for end-of-
life care.
-Use the smallest catheter possible.
-Daily cleansing of the urethral meatus with soap and water or perineal
cleanser.
-Maintaining a closed urinary drainage system.
-Maintaining a free flow of urine through the catheter.
-Avoiding urethral trauma by securing a catheter.
-Antiseptics applied to the urinary meatus are NOT effective and should
not be applied.
-Antiseptic solutions placed in drainage bags and complex urinary
drainage systems have NOT been found to be effective.
