FEATURES
Oxygen Concentrators are medical devices that deliver
nearly pure oxygen through the nose via tubes.
This equipment concentrates the oxygen from a gas supply,
eliminates nitrogen, and thereby supplies an oxygen-rich
product gas stream. Thus, it is a blessing for people suering
from respiratory disorders. It is a portable and cost-eective
device widely used in hospitals.
In the portable oxygen concentrators, pulse dose and
continuous flow are the two settings for receiving oxygen.
The pulse dose mode which is used for the daytime delivers
air via the cannula as you inhale. This type of oxygen
concentrator are designed in a compact way and comes
with a good battery life. However, the mode with continous
flow is capable of delivering regular air flow via the tubes.
Advantages of Oxygen Concentrators for COVID-19 Patients
One of the major issues that COVID-19 patients start
facing is the inability to breathe properly. Therefore,
oxygen concentrators can be helpful in providing best
possible oxygen supportive care. A majority of the cases
that are not very severe and do not require the help of
ventilator support can be treated by the breathing therapy
facilitated by oxygen concentrator. And, with the help of
this medical device, a COVID-19 infected patient can take
his/her oxygen therapy from the safety and comfort of
their homes. Some other benets of Oxygen Concentrators
include improved physical exercise tolerance,
improved quality of sleep, and enhanced mental alertness.
