hello.. i know that it might be a foolish thing to ask this, but in my place, we are not talking much about this, so my understanding about this basic thing is very little,,

i am learning about oxygen therapy and i realize that it involves talking about inspiratory peak flow rate and minute ventilation...now, my question is :
1. what is the difference between them?
2. why should we consider peak inspiratory flow rate in oxygen therapy?
3. what relationship does the peak inspiratory flow and minute ventilation have? i mean, how can they affect each other?

please help...thx u
