2. Portable oxygen concentrator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portable_oxygen_concentrator

   A lightweight portable oxygen concentrator: Inogen One G3 (2,2 kg) Sequal Equinox, transportable concentrator with a high oxygen flow rate. A portable oxygen concentrator (POC) is a device used to provide oxygen therapy to people that require greater oxygen concentrations than the levels of ambient air. It is similar to a home oxygen ...

3. High altitude breathing apparatus - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_altitude_breathing...

   Bottled oxygen, more broadly known as high pressure compressed oxygen, medical oxygen, and aviator's oxygen, is oxygen in small, portable, high-pressure storage cylinders. For aviation, the weight of the cylinder is usually not critical, and the choice of material may be affected by economic considerations such as purchase price and useful ...

4. Oxygen concentrator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen_concentrator

   An oxygen concentrator takes in air and removes nitrogen from it, leaving an oxygen-enriched gas for use by people requiring medical oxygen due to low oxygen levels in their blood. [4] Oxygen concentrators provide an economical source of oxygen in industrial processes, where they are also known as oxygen gas generators or oxygen generation plants.

5. Oxygen therapy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen_therapy

   Many people only require slight increases in inhaled oxygen, rather than pure or near-pure oxygen. [67] These requirements can be met through a number of devices dependent on situation, flow requirements, and personal preference. A nasal cannula (NC) is a thin tube with two small nozzles inserted into a person's nostrils. It can provide oxygen ...

6. Altitude sickness - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Altitude_sickness

   At 3,400 metres (11,200 ft) (67 kPa or 0.66 atm), raising the oxygen concentration level by 5% via an oxygen concentrator and an existing ventilation system provides an effective altitude of 3,000 m (10,000 ft) (70 kPa or 0.69 atm), which is more tolerable for those unaccustomed to high altitudes.
