Question

You are managing an rosc patient. while transitioning the patient to the​ ambulance, your partner dropped and broke the pulse oximeter. during​ transport, how much oxygen should be​ provided?

Answer 1

I think an amount of 15 lpm, would be appropriate. Return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) is resumption of sustained perfusing cardiac activity associated with significant respiratory effort after cardiac arrest. Signs of ROSC include breathing, coughing, or movement and a palpable pulse or a measurable blood pressure.
