Health oxygen generator: The oxygen concentration is generally between 30% and 90%, which is suitable for daily health care, relieving fatigue, improving oxygen supply to the brain and preventing certain diseases. Most health care oxygen generators in the market are 1 liter and 2-liter machines. Medical-grade oxygen generator: The oxygen concentration should reach more than 90%, which can be used for daily health care and some patients with heart and lung diseases, so as to improve oxygen saturation and help cure diseases. The following is a medical-grade oxygen generator.
Matters needing attention in oxygen therapy of oxygen generator
The oxygen concentration (especially in alveoli) is low below 30%, moderate between 30% and 50%, and high above 50%.
Inhalation of high concentration oxygen with concentration greater than 50% may cause oxygen poisoning for two consecutive days, and oxygen poisoning may occur within 12 hours when the inhaled oxygen concentration is higher than 80%. The reasonable oxygen concentration is 24%-33%, which is most in line with the oxygen exchange in alveoli. Therefore, it is suggested that the flow rate for treatment and health care should not exceed 5L/ min.
The purpose of finding a reasonable oxygen concentration (flow rate) is to consider factors such as economic cost. If the flow rate of 1.5L/ min can completely achieve the therapeutic purpose, and the concentration is adjusted to 2.5L/ min, the effect is the same, but the oxygen of 1L is wasted every minute, so it is necessary to find the oxygen concentration suitable for users under the guidance of doctors in the initial stage of oxygen inhalation.
