The major exception is when a metered supply is fed into the oxygenator of an extracorporeal circulation of a cardio-pulmonary bypass system. Inhaled Medicinal Oxygen must be administered using an appropriate pressure reduction device and equipment such as mask or nasal prongs to deliver the required inspired concentrations of oxygen, between 21% and 100%, as determined by the prescriber after full clinical assessment. Most delivery systems for adults result in an inspired oxygen concentration of 60% or less. Inhaled oxygen may require humidification when treatment duration is longer than an hour.
