Safety. Medical oxygen concentrator is purely physical oxygen production, does not contain any chemical agent. Safe voltage, not to mention the need to worry about leakage and explosion.
Convenient. Oxygen is produced when plugged in, easy to use and operate.
Economic. Use 1 hour of electricity costs only 2 cents, and the service life of up to 20 years, the average daily cost of less than 80 cents (including electricity).
Science. The international standard level of oxygen-rich, want to inhale, no oxygen dependence and oxygen poisoning, the most suitable for family oxygen therapy and oxygen health care. Oxygen therapy methods and precautions
The main precautions of oxygen inhalation are:
(1) Closely observe the effect of oxygen therapy, such as dyspnea and other symptoms of reduced or relieved, heartbeat is normal or close to normal, which indicates that oxygen therapy is effective. Otherwise, we should look for the cause of the problem and deal with it in time.
(2) high concentration of oxygen should not be too long, generally believed that the oxygen concentration >60%, for more than 24 hours, oxygen poisoning may occur. (3) the acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients given high concentration of oxygen may lead to respiratory depression to worsen the condition, generally should be given to control (i.e., low concentration of continuous) oxygen as appropriate.
(4) Oxygen therapy attention to heating and humidification, the respiratory tract to maintain a temperature of 37 ℃ and 95% to 100% humidity is the mucus cilia system to clear the normal function of the necessary conditions, so the inhalation of oxygen should be through the humidification bottles and the necessary heating device, in order to prevent the inhalation of dry and cold oxygen stimulation damage to the mucous membrane of the airway, resulting in phlegm dry and affect the cilia of the "scavenger" function.

(5) Prevent pollution and catheter blockage, nasal plugs, oxygen catheters, humidification and warming devices, ventilator piping system should be changed and cleaned and disinfected frequently and regularly to prevent cross-infection. Oxygen catheter, nasal plugs should always pay attention to check whether there is no secretion blockage, and timely replacement. To ensure effective and safe oxygen therapy.
Oxygen is very important to the human body, healthy people in a normal state, naturally breathe air and use the oxygen therein to maintain metabolic needs. When you are sick or in some abnormal state, you have to inhale oxygen at home or in a clinic or hospital through certain equipment. Commonly used oxygen inhalation methods are:
(1) Nasal plugging and nasal catheter oxygen inhalation method: this method of oxygen inhalation equipment is simple, easy to use. Nasal plug method has a single plug and double plug two kinds: single plug method to choose the appropriate type of plug in one side of the nasal vestibule, and close contact with the nasal cavity (the other side of the nostrils are open), inhalation only into the oxygen, so the concentration of oxygen inhalation is more stable. Double plug method for the two smaller nose plugs placed in both nostrils at the same time, there is still space around the nose plugs, can breathe air at the same time, the patient is more comfortable, but the oxygen concentration is not stable enough. Nasal catheter method is a catheter (commonly used catheter) inserted through the nostrils into the nasal cavity at the top of the soft palate, the oxygen concentration is constant, but for a long time there will be discomfort and easy to be clogged by secretions. Nasal plug, nasal catheter oxygen method is generally only suitable for low-flow oxygen supply, if the flow rate is relatively large will be due to the flow rate and the impact of the force is very large to make people can not tolerate, and easy to lead to the airway mucosa dry. (2) Mask oxygenation: it can be divided into open and closed mask method. Open type is to place the mask 1~3 cm away from the patient's mouth and nose, which is suitable for children without any discomfort. The closed mask method is to put the mask tightly over the nose and mouth and use the elastic band to fix it, which is suitable for the more severe hypoxia, and the concentration of oxygen can reach 40% to 50%, which is more comfortable without mucous membrane irritation and dry blowing sensation. However, the oxygen consumption is large, and there is the disadvantage of inconvenience in eating and sputum discharge.
(3) Oxygen therapy through the tracheal tube: a thin catheter is inserted into the trachea through the nasal cavity of the oxygen supply method, also known as endotracheal oxygen therapy. Mainly suitable for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and interstitial fibrosis and other causes of chronic respiratory failure requires long-term oxygen and general oxygen therapy is ineffective, due to the use of catheters directly to the trachea oxygen supply, so can significantly improve the efficacy of the treatment, only a lower flow rate of oxygen can achieve a higher effect, and the oxygen consumption is very small.
(4) electronic pulse oxygen therapy: it is a new method, it is through the electronic pulse device can make in the inhalation period automatically send oxygen, and expiration period and automatically stop sending oxygen. This is more in line with the physiological state of respiration and greatly saves oxygen. It is suitable for nasal congestion, nasal catheter and endotracheal oxygen therapy.
(5) mechanical ventilation oxygen method: that is, with various artificial respiratory machine for mechanical ventilation, the use of respiratory machine on the oxygen supply device for oxygen therapy. Oxygen concentration can be adjusted according to the needs of the condition (21% to 100%). Oxygen therapy oxygen source is generally used in oxygen cylinders, and the installation of a pressure gauge to indicate the amount of oxygen stored in the bottle, the oxygen supply installed flow meter, according to the need to adjust the oxygen flow.
