A system for delivering oxygen comprises an oxygen source; a ventilator operatively connected to the oxygen source to receive a supply of oxygen therefrom; a valve having a) an open position in which the ventilator receives the supply of oxygen from the oxygen source and b) a closed position in which the ventilator is not in fluid communication with the oxygen source; a sensor configured to measure breath flow information for the patient; and a computer system to: determine a volume of gas delivered to the patient during a breath cycle of the patient and an inspiratory volume of gas delivered to the patient during an inspiration phase of the breath cycle by using the breath flow information; and provide input to the valve based on the determined volumes, the provided input causing a movement of the valve between the open and the closed positions.
