Feedback
1. The pressure is not adequate to oxygenate the infant.
2. A nasal cannula does not deliver enough pure oxygen to raise the oxygen saturation of the infant.
3. The oxygen tent will not allow for enough pressure for the infant to raise the oxygen saturation.
4. A partial rebreather mask with an oxygen flow rate of 8 liters per minute will raise the oxygen saturation of the infant.
