1.GENERAL INFORMATION
Before operating the device, make sure that you have carefully read and understood all the topics
written in this manual.
Intended Use of the Device: It is used to provide oxygen therapy to the patients that oxygen therapy is
required (such as heart, lung and other respiratory diseases) whom determined and recommended by
the doctor.
Working Principle: This oxygen concentrator is designed for personal use at home by providing the
separated oxygen from the air in the room. This device obtains 90% pure oxygen from the environment
at the rate of 21% oxygen by using PSA technology. Thanks to the cannula attached to the nose, it
allows the patient to receive highly concentrated oxygen directly.
Side Effects: As with any treatment, oxygen therapy has risks and unwanted side effects. The most
important risks in oxygen treatment are accidents and fires related to the transportation, filling and use
of oxygen devices. Since oxygen is a flammable and explosive substance, the oxygen source should
be placed away from heat generating systems and the patient should never smoke during oxygen
therapy. Potential side effects of exposure to high concentrations of oxygen are changes in
normal physiological functions, oxygen-related tissue damage / oxygen toxicity, and carbon dioxide
accumulation. Carbon dioxide accumulation is mostly seen as a result of using high levels of oxygen,
and it is usually manifested by drowsiness in patients.
Patients Need Oxygen Therapy: Patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary, Pulmonary
Hypertension, Congestive Heart Failure, Cystic fibrosis, Lung cancer, Alpha 1 and similar patients.
Patient Population: There are approximately 210 million COPD patients in the world and 3.5 million in
our country. Especially, over the age of 40 who smoke, this disease is seen in one out of every 5
people.
