Oxygen is supplied to the patients
in the hospital in two forms, in portable tanks and in the main
hospital oxygen tank. Portable tanks are used to supply oxygen to
patients when they move around the hospital for tests, therapy or
simply walking. The main hospital oxygen tank is connected to the
hospital rooms through pipes. The oxygen connector may be seen
coming out of the wall of a patient's room. The hospital staff will
place a special adapter into the connector that is used to regulate
the amount of oxygen that can be delivered to a patient.
