Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Nonrebreathing masks are used in cases of smoke inhalation because they provide the highest concentration of oxygen (up to 90%) and do not allow for exhaled air to be rebreathed. This helps to prevent the inhalation of harmful carbon monoxide and other toxins that may be present in smoke. Simple face masks and partial rebreathing masks do not provide as high of a concentration of oxygen as the nonrebreathing mask, and the ventimask is typically used for more precise oxygen delivery in specific medical conditions.
