Why Your Physician Prescribed Oxygen
Man
y
people
suffer
from
a
variety
of
heart,
lung,
and
other
respiratory
diseases.
A
significant
number
of
these
patients can benefit
from
supplemental ox
ygen therapy at home, in the hospital, or at a medical facility.
Oxygen is a gas that makes up 21% of
the room air we breathe. Our bodies depend on a steady supply to function properly. Your
physician prescribed a flow or setting to address your particular respiratory condition.
Although
Oxygen i
s a non
-
additive drug,
unauthorized oxygen therapy can be
dangerous. You must seek medical advice before you
use this oxygen concentrator. The Equipment Provider who supplies your oxygen equipment will demonstrate how to set the
prescribed flow rate.
It is very important to select the prescribed level of oxygen flow. Do not increase or decrease the flow until you
fi
rst consult your physician.
