To perform the Pethick test, use the following steps:
- Occlude the patient’s end of the circuit (at the elbow).

How do you calculate fio2?
Well that's simple your fio2 is going to equal your total mls of oxygen over your total mls of flow we already said that we had nine liters total flow.
How many liters is FiO2?
24%
At 1 LPM, the approximate FiO2 is 24%.
How do you clear your lungs from COVID?
Breathe out fully. Take a small breath in through your mouth, nose or both and hold. On top of the air already in your lungs, take another small breath.
Breath stacking is a technique that can be used to:
