The first is the conserving ratio of the conserver that is used.
Oxygen conserving device settings.
Our devices monitor the patient s breathing patterns and adjusts the oxygen dose depending on the patient s needs.
When attached to an oxygen cylinder the bonsai regulator allows individuals to adjust the amount of oxygen output they receive.
The ocd releases oxygen only when the patient inhales thus dramatically increasing the amount of time a patient can use the.
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.
Regulators and conserving devices require physician s rx.
An oxygen conserving device delivers oxygen to the patient in increments usually when the patient inhales.
It causes the oxygen to be delivered only when you take a breath.
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.
A round up of some ocd offerings currently on the market.
We carry oxygen conservers from smartdose and drive medical both leading names in the medical supply industry.
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.
A conserving device is an entirely different kind of device that delivers a pulse of oxygen as the patient inhales on demand.
The oxygen conserving device ocd is the device on your small compressed gas tank that makes the oxygen supply last longer.
An oxygen conserving device ocd controls the flow of oxygen from the oxygen source to the patient.
To prevent injury from cylinders tipping over do not use cannula tubing lengths over 7 feet with small compressed oxygen cylinders.
A regulator simply regulates the free flow from an oxygen cylinder.
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.
