Need O2 flowrate help

Posted by Jesse Heller (63.209.127.52) on July 14, 2001 at 21:30:17:

Got my first O2 today with a non - rebreather mask. Everything I read says I need a flowrate of 8 - 10 lpm for it to be effective.
My question is: The higher the flowrate the faster I breath or do I breath at a normal rate? How does it work?
Thanks,
Jess
