An oxygen nasal cannula is a lightweight, flexible tube with soft prongs inserted into the nostrils for low-flow oxygen delivery. It allows patients to talk, eat, and move comfortably while receiving supplemental oxygen. Used in hospitals, clinics, and home care settings, it is ideal for respiratory conditions and post-surgical recovery.

An oxygen nasal cannula is a lightweight medical device used to deliver supplemental oxygen to patients requiring respiratory support. It consists of a soft, flexible plastic tube with two small prongs that are gently inserted into the nostrils, allowing oxygen to flow directly into the nasal passages. Cannulas are typically connected to an oxygen source, such as a concentrator or cylinder, and can deliver low to moderate flow rates, ranging from 1 to 6 liters per minute. A slide adjuster under the chin helps secure the cannula in place, while the soft tubing wraps comfortably around the ears to avoid pressure sores or irritation during extended wear. Used extensively in hospitals, emergency rooms, home care, and ambulatory settings, nasal cannulas are preferred for their simplicity, comfort, and minimal interference with speech or eating. They are ideal for patients with chronic respiratory conditions such as COPD, asthma, or pneumonia, as well as those recovering from surgery or experiencing hypoxemia. Disposable and latex-free, oxygen cannulas come in adult, pediatric, and neonatal sizes. Some variants include humidification adaptors for added moisture to reduce dryness during prolonged oxygen therapy. Their transparent design allows for easy visibility and monitoring, while kink-resistant tubing ensures uninterrupted oxygen flow. Compact, cost-effective, and easy to use, nasal cannulas are a critical tool in non-invasive respiratory support, improving patient oxygenation without compromising mobility or comfort.
