Oxygen Hood
Application The Oxygen Hood is designed to deliver oxygen for short-term treatments in a less restrictive and stressful environment. It's an alternative to using a handheld anaesthesia mask or nasal cannulas which can be stressful to the animal, labour intensive, and difficult to secure. Features The Oxygen Hood is easy to put on and quick to secure by tightening the pull string along the hood. It has two ports, for oxygen input and CO2 and output. The window at the front allows for continuous monitoring of the patient and the zippered slot for monitoring leads. Additional Equipment Required VetMedWear only supplies the Oxygen Hood and the adapting nozzle for the ports. An oxygen concentrator or oxygen tank and connecting tube will have to be purchased separately to operate the Oxygen Hood. How to Administer Oxygen An oxygen tank or any portable oxygen concentrator that can operate 24/7 if necessary that meets the oxygen flow requirements recommended by the veterinarian may be used.
