Oxygen and Respiratory HomeCare medical equipment falls into three primary categories; compressed
oxygen, oxygen concentrators and nebulizers.
Compressed
Oxygen
Compressed oxygen
cylinders come in a variety of sizes to meet specific
needs. Smaller cylinders are quite portable and can be
carried with a shoulder strap, on a wheelchair or on a
walker.
Larger cylinders
can be carried on a wheelchair or on a cart, or can be
used as stationary unit.
Oxygen Concentrators
Oxygen
Concentrators take oxygen out of the room's air to deliver a
flow of air with a higher oxygen content than standard room air.
Nebulizers
Nebulizers deliver medications
directly to the lungs. The type of nebulizer appropriate for a
particular patient and medication will be prescribed by the physician.
Regardless of the type
prescribed, many come in various models, from stationary units which
work with compressed oxygen and concentrator units, to highly portable
units which will plug into your car lighter.
