Oxygen concentrator

Oxygen concentrator is a device for producing oxygen, which plays an important role in the treatment and rehabilitation of diseases in the medical field. At the same time, it can also meet people's health needs in terms of health preservation. However, when using it, one should follow medical advice, adjust the oxygen flow rate and oxygen inhalation time reasonably. Here are its features and uses: 

Characteristic

Easy to operate:

Modern oxygen concentrators are designed with a focus on user experience and a simple and intuitive interface. Most oxygen concentrators can be turned on and the oxygen flow rate can be adjusted with just a few buttons. Ordinary users can easily use them with simple guidance, making it convenient for daily household use.

Safe and reliable:

Oxygen concentrators are usually equipped with comprehensive safety protection devices. For example, the overheat protection function will automatically shut down when the internal temperature of the machine is too high, avoiding safety accidents caused by overheating; There is also a power outage alarm function that can promptly remind users in case of sudden power outages, ensuring safety during use.

There are various methods of oxygen production:

common methods include molecular sieve oxygen production, chemical agent oxygen production, and membrane separation oxygen production. The molecular sieve oxygen production method is the most commonly used, which utilizes the difference in adsorption capacity of molecular sieves for nitrogen and oxygen in the air to adsorb nitrogen and separate high-purity oxygen; The method of chemical oxygen production involves the reaction of chemical agents to produce oxygen; The membrane separation oxygen production method uses a special polymer membrane to allow oxygen in the air to pass through the membrane under pressure, thereby obtaining oxygen.

Portability differences:

Oxygen concentrators come in different specifications and types. Some small portable oxygen concentrators are compact in size and light in weight, making them convenient for patients to carry and use when going out. For example, portable oxygen concentrators powered by lithium batteries can meet the oxygen needs of patients in outdoor, travel and other scenarios; Although large household oxygen concentrators are inconvenient to move, they usually have more stable oxygen production performance and can supply oxygen continuously for a long time.

Usage:

Medical Rehabilitation:

Respiratory system diseases，For patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), emphysema, pulmonary heart disease, etc., oxygen concentrators can provide long-term oxygen therapy, improve hypoxia, alleviate respiratory distress symptoms, and improve quality of life.

Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases,For patients with coronary heart disease, myocardial infarction, cerebral infarction, etc., oxygen therapy can help alleviate hypoxia damage to the heart and brain, promote recovery, and reduce the risk of disease recurrence.

Rehabilitation therapy:

In some postoperative or trauma recovery processes, oxygen therapy can help patients increase their body's oxygen supply, promote wound healing, and accelerate the recovery of bodily functions.

Health Preservation:

Improving sleep，For people with poor sleep quality and easy insomnia, oxygen therapy can improve the brain's hypoxia state, relieve mental stress, and promote sleep.

Relieve fatigue:

After high-intensity work, study, or exercise, the human body is prone to symptoms such as fatigue and dizziness. Oxygen inhalation can quickly replenish the oxygen needed by the body, relieve fatigue, and restore physical strength.

High altitude sickness:

In high-altitude areas, due to the thin air and low oxygen content, people are prone to experiencing high altitude sickness. Carrying a portable oxygen concentrator can provide timely oxygen inhalation and alleviate discomfort symptoms caused by altitude sickness, such as headaches, shortness of breath, chest tightness, etc.
