Oxygen conserving device settings.
An oxygen conserving device delivers oxygen to the patient in increments usually when the patient inhales.
An oxygen conserving device ocd controls the flow of oxygen from the oxygen source to the patient.
Our devices monitor the patient s breathing patterns and adjusts the oxygen dose depending on the patient s needs.
It provides more liter flow equivalencies continuous flow.
A regulator simply regulates the free flow from an oxygen cylinder.
The first is the conserving ratio of the conserver that is used.
The bonsai velocity pneumatic oxygen conserver by drive medical formerly manufactured by chad therapeutics is a compact lightweight oxygen conserving device for individuals who require oxygen therapy.
To prevent injury from cylinders tipping over do not use cannula tubing lengths over 7 feet with small compressed oxygen cylinders.
Conservers use a 3 1 to 6 1 ratio with the 3 1 ratio providing the largest amount of oxygen and 6 1 providing the smallest amount of oxygen.
Not all ocds deliver the same amount of oxygen as a continuous flow would so it is important that your oxygen saturation be tested at rest and with.
The oxymizer pendant is capable of reducing oxygen costs by 75 on a continuous flow machine and is our simplest conserving device operating without batteries or controls.
The amount of oxygen output and actual amount a patient receives on the various pulse settings depends on several factors.
This oxygen saver also has the capability of increasing your lpm up to 2 whole settings.
