Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Oxygen hoods must be measured intermittently or monitored continuously with an oxygen ana-lyzer.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Air-entrainment masks are excellent for providing oxygen therapy to hypoxemic patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease who typically require a fixed FIO2 between 0.24 and 0.35. The total flow of gas delivered (oxygen plus air) by such masks for lower FIO2 levels is usually sufficient to meet the peak inspiratory flow requirements for these patients.
