Hospital’s Second Wave Response

• United Mission Hospital Tansen has been very busy treating Covid-19 patients during this second wave.
• The hospital has an oxygen plant which can only produce around 113 litres of oxygen per minute.  By calculating the amount of oxygen being used, we have estimated that every patient on the isolation needs 7 litres/ minute average supply.  The most critically ill need 15 plus L/min.  For this reason we have set the safety limit to admitting 20 oxygen dependent patients. 
• Other areas of the hospital, the wards Emergency, operating room and maternity are also using some oxygen. If we exceed the limit this would be dangerous for patients needing high flow oxygen.
