Hi all, In setting up for an outpatient procedure and getting the anesthesia machine ready, the cable from the machine to plug the wall oxygen source in kept popping out from the wall. Is it possible the wall pressure was too high? How can I fix this? Thanks.
 
Don’t touch the hose.
If there is an anesthesia machine, there should be someone who can operate it. Ask whoever is there. Let them know it’s your first day setting up.

If you are connecting the cannula to the wall, you can adjust how many liters of oxygen per minute.

Good luck
