2. Oxygen concentrator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen_concentrator

   Medical oxygen concentrators are used in hospitals or at home to concentrate oxygen for patients. [8] PSA generators provide a cost-efficient source of oxygen. They are a safer, [9] less expensive, [10] and more convenient alternative to tanks of cryogenic oxygen or pressurised cylinders. They can be used in various industries, including ...

3. High altitude breathing apparatus - Wikipedia

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

   An oxygen concentrator is a device that concentrates the oxygen from a gas supply (typically ambient air) by selectively removing nitrogen to supply an oxygen-enriched product gas stream. They are also used industrially and as medical devices for oxygen therapy. [15] Two methods in common use are pressure swing adsorption and membrane gas ...

   Medical oxygen storage tanks at the Royal Women's Hospital, Melbourne, Australia. Oxygen may be used for patients requiring supplemental oxygen via mask. Usually accomplished by a large storage system of liquid oxygen at the hospital which is evaporated into a concentrated oxygen supply, pressures are usually around 345–380 kPa (50.0–55.1 psi), [1] [2] or in the UK and Europe, 4–5 bar ...

   The International Pharmacopoeia specifies that Medical oxygen produced by air liquefaction has a purity of at least 99.5% oxygen by volume. The World Health Organization (WHO) specifies that for pressure swing adsorption (PSA) plants, medical oxygen produced from ambient air has 93±3% oxygen, and for oxygen concentrators, 82% from room air (21 ...

6. Heated humidified high-flow therapy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heated_humidified_high...

   Heated humidified high-flow therapy, often simply called high flow therapy, is a type of respiratory support that delivers a flow of medical gas to a patient of up to 60 liters per minute and 100% oxygen through a large bore or high flow nasal cannula. Primarily studied in neonates, it has also been found effective in some adults to treat ...
