Benefits of Using an Oxygen Concentrator

​

There are several benefits of using an oxygen concentrator for patients with chronic respiratory conditions or other medical conditions that affect their ability to breathe:

1. Increased oxygen levels: Oxygen concentrators are able to purify ambient air and deliver oxygen-rich air to the patient, which can help increase the oxygen levels in the blood. This can help improve breathing and overall health for patients with conditions such as COPD, emphysema, and pneumonia.

2. Convenience: Oxygen concentrators come in a variety of sizes and styles, including portable units that can be worn on a belt. This allows patients to move around more freely and continue with their daily activities while receiving the oxygen therapy they need.

3. Cost-effective: Renting an oxygen concentrator can be a cost-effective option for patients who require the use of the device on a short-term or temporary basis, compared to purchasing one outright.

4. Improved Quality of Life: Oxygen concentrators can help reduce symptoms of respiratory conditions such as shortness of breath, fatigue, and chest tightness, and can help improve overall quality of life.

5. Better Sleep: Oxygen concentrators can also help improve sleep quality, which is important for overall health. When used to treat sleep apnea, an oxygen concentrator can help increase oxygen levels during sleep, reducing the number of apneic episodes and helping the patient to sleep better.

6. Reduced Hospitalization: With the help of an oxygen concentrator, patients can avoid hospitalization and treatment in an intensive care unit.

What Key Features to check before buying Oxygen Concentrator?

 

​1.Capacity in Litre : 5 Litre to 100 Litre

 

2.Oxygen Flow : Per minute output - variable - 0.5 L to 5 L - typical defined by capacity and adjustable as per need of the patient. Important parameter. ​

 

3.Nebulizer : Typical add-on for the patients having breathing issues - is a big plus (its optional for few models and comes as a standard with few models) ​

 

4.Oxygen concentration output : Very important to have 90% or more. Do check! ​

 

5.Battery Backup : For those times, when suddenly power goes Or when patients need to be transported. It is not a standard feature as yet, but a big plus for those models which have it. It’s a Big plus for peace of mind. Typical backup provided is 1 hour, good enough for most cases. ​
