Oxygen tank (EMT Basics)

Follow along on our Medical/Trauma Assessment sheets! [Specific tabs on bottom]
The regulator and the O2 key.

We then cover how to properly apply the regulator to the tank and crack it open with the key

Thank you so much! I'm a First Responder at my employer, a warehouse, and I have to recertify tomorrow after skipping last year ( 2 year certificate). I was never comfortable with the air tanks and decided to look up videos for help. Four videos later and still not doing well. Found yours and now feel 100% confident in my knowledge. Thanks again!

Dude my.lights when out and i couldn't make the operator work until I saw this, life saver!

Thank you for the video. We are dealing with empty tanks in my EMT class but when we test we will have full tanks so it helps to watch how to open the oxygen tank and check for leaks.

Thank you! I reread the instructions about six times in my EMT textbook and this video was exactly what I needed.

This is an excellent instructional video. The only thing that is missing is no mentioning of the part called Washer that is such an important part positioned right above the "two teeth." So this video would work as a good reminder to people who are already trained on O2 tanks but not for the beginners.

Your video is the best. You made it so easy to figure out how to use it. Thank you

[MasterKoala]

Thank you. 🙂 My dad hasn’t needed the oxygen tank in 3 years, but I had to review today how to operate it.

Thanks very much for this! I was looking for a video to help me maintain our tanks standing with our crash cart here at my job. This is just what I needed!

Thank you for the help. It looks like alien technology when you don't know what to do but once you know, it's very simple. It seems intuitive in terms of how the regulator lines up with the tank. Now that I know this, I can help my Mom if she goes somewhere.

[UURpantsRonFIREE]

Really good video, would’ve been nice to name all the parts of the tank.

Is it safe to handle these cylinders without fabric gloves?

[injife]

Thank you so much! I fully understand what should do.

[eileensianez]

Thank u you're a great teacher. 🙏😊

[sherry]

Omg mine is Completely different and I don't remember how to use it

[shrikantpuranik]

U have just mechanical portion. What about calculating amt of gas left or used, for alay man. Show flow calculation per division, per 1000, etc.

[paulamyers]

Can anyone tell me what safety measure is put in place to ensure an oxygen cylinder is only filled with oxygen

[AsnaFarooq-qqrg]
