It's just a matter of time before these Portable Oxygen Concentrators replace oxygen cylinders, regulators and conserving devices.
PHC is proud to carry portable O2 concentrators from trusted brands like Invacare, Respironics and Drive-Devilbiss. With these portables, patients can experience a more convenient and worry-free trip, no matter if it’s across the globe or simply to the grocery store.
Prescription Requirements for Purchase of Oxygen Concentrator.
Living with a condition that requires an oxygen tank can be very restrictive for patients, especially when it comes to travel and upkeep. Tanks can be a hassle to refill, and cylinders are large and unsightly. Fortunately, PHC carries several different portable oxygen machines that ultimately replace bulky oxygen cylinders and regulators, allowing patients to travel more freely and comfortably.
Great for everyday and even long plane rides, our selection of portable oxygen equipment is designed to be smaller, lightweight and more aesthetically pleasing so users can feel more confident traveling with it. The compressor motors are also very quiet, so it is likely that bystanders won’t even know that there’s a travel oxygen concentrator running in their midst. These portable oxygen generators are battery powered, lasting between 3 to 8 hours depending on the model specifications and battery life, and can also be plugged into any 110v AC outlet to stay powered. In the case that batteries run out, it’s easy to just carry an extra set.
Portable Oxygen Concentrators
POCs offer active patients several advantages. When attached to a cart, the system resembles a small piece of roll-on luggage, when carried by it's tote strap the units resemble a camcorder case, and batteries give patients between 3 and 8 hours of use. The units have been approved for use on airplanes, and patients can even plug them into a car's accessory plug when driving. For many oxygen patients, the appeal of the portable concentrator is not having to worry about running out of oxygen while they are away from home.
How Pulsedose worksPulseDose dramatically extends the use time from a supply of oxygen, offering increased mobility with improved comfort and increased efficiency. The reliability and safety of PulseDose oxygen delivery has been proven effective in clinical testing.
Because oxygen is released only during inhalation, the constant flow of oxygen into the nostrils is eliminated. Many users find PulseDose oxygen delivery more comfortable than continuous flow delivery systems. The short pulse of oxygen delivered during inhalation is almost undetectable, and the humidity in the room air helps maintain a normal level of moisture in the nasal cavity. This greatly reduces the discomfort of dehydration associated with a continuous flow oxygen system.
