This Video is very Excellent. Thanks for Video.
Will frequent use of humidifier result in increase in cough in chest?
Am using the concentrator for some three months. But makes alot of noise. Especially at night cose l use it more.
Thanks for the information, good for a newbie.
@@user-rw7cr3px3g My tank only lasted for two sessions, not enough time to find out about hair. I need a new system.
This shows the concentrator up against back of sofa. That should never be done. There should be at least 12 inches between the back where the air intake is located and any furniture.
good point
There’s not an intake on the back of that model.. I have that one

please advise people oxygen machine can produce nose and throat dryness because air flows in/out all the time. After use a couple of days, patient will ask for water especially during sleep.
I have the home oxygen concentrator as of yet I don't have the portable kind that you can carry on the plane but can I take my home concentrator on the plane my home concentrator doesn't have the water bottle to it just where you plug it up and turn the knob on I just would like to know I have not seen any demos or explanation of how to use the home concentrator in order to travel for a lot of people don't have the portable kind so what are they to do
very nice .
Hi, does the water bottle for the dry breathing, turned upside down on the concetrater have to be there? Seems like the water beads are coming through my tube and choking.
Hi James, we recommend talking to our experts at the American Lung Association Lung HelpLine. Our service is free and we are here to help you. bit.ly/2OetcjP
Hi James, my mother had the same problem which was caused by filling the water bottle too high with water. You may want to try reducing the amount of water you put in it by about 1" at a time and see if that helps.

is it possible to get supplies in bangladesh?
Mobile oxygen concentrator device..it's great with global health..just depends on filling valve grades…
I have the same concentrator as in the video with a humidifier attached. If the humidifier is connected to the concentrator via tube...where in the unit do you connect the tube that goes to the nose? Maybe this is a dumb question but I can not figure it out. Please help.
They have a video on U Tube that will show u how to connect it i had the same problem
Comnect to the humidifier bottle nozzle
when I do sports like very hard core body training I use this.
what is the best machine device of this kind? what's the brand&model you have here?
Invacare is the most common. The video has Everflo. That is in my opinion, just getting started.
How should the concentrator be positioned on the floor?
I want oxygen generator for welding torch
What if we plug it into an extension power cable? We don’t have anymore wall outlet left
If I where you I get an electrician to install another outlet in your place. What your talking about doing is potentially dangerous
@@portrait1001 how is it dangerous?
Why not unplug something from the wall and plug in concentrator and plug the other object in to the extension.
how loud are these machines? trying to figure out if a continuous electrical running is coming from a first floor apartment. I can hear it in mine on the third floor if it's quiet
There are several models to choose from and generally speaking, newer models are less noisy. You can learn more at Lung.org/oxygen or call 1-800-LUNGUSA to discuss your options.
About 50dB
Not much , not a problem
Just getting over pneumonia at 70 years old with bronchial asthma and I’m a cigarette smoker. I will fall asleep for 4 to 5 hours and wake up with so much mucus in my bronchial tubes that I got to get out of bed sit up drink fluids for 3 to 4 hours before I can even use an inhaler. i’m presently on Medicare and CIGNA is our supplemental insurance company. just wondering if they cover oxygen I can use so I can sleep at night because as soon as I lay down for so many hours my bronchial tubes just fill up with mucus.
I’m OK if I’m up and drinking fluids, but it still takes hours just to clear out all the gunk in my lungs. Any help or info would be much appreciate it.. it gets pretty brutal when you also suffer from panic attacks and hyperventilation.
We just got another concentrater. The tech. put the oxygen level above the # 2 he said that's the proper setting. However the video shows the # 2 in the center of the bubble. I'm confused.
The video also said the number is prescribed by your doctor. Seems like you need more oxygen. Your brain doesn't work properly.
Very very good tecnogy.
I’m on Oxygen Long time now my biggest problem is the cannula on the ears it hurts to ears after a while .
What is the solution ?
plaster on both sides of face if you are not allergic to tape, then tighten the lock directly at the back of the head , bypassing the ears & neck.
how can you sleep with this machine on, it is loud and high vibration
How do I set up my machine? It didn't show any of that . . ,
let me know the price of this unit
I got the concentrator for sleeping only. Am I supposed to leave it running when not in use?
Nope. But make sure to run at least an hour every 10-15 days if not being used.
Where does the oxygen comes from?? Whether we need to refill it / how??
The oxygen comes from the concentrator after other gases are filtered out. You don''t need to refill it as the air is taken by the device from the atmosphere itself.
What I needed to know was how to connect the water bottle to the consentrator
Hello I'm interested to buy this product
What if the alarm doesn't work, what should I do?

How much time it can give oxigen contineously
8 to 10 hrs
Can some tell me why my machine just like the one in the video has both green and orange (yellow) light on? I use it 18 hours a day. Thanks
It could be that the machine needs service or the o2 percentage is low. DMEGUYS
Normal function is only the green light.
Could need the filter cleaned and/or more circulation near the vents
Simon Sanchez
I’m in
My light is yellow when on
Hi... May I ask one question.... instead of using purified water, is it possible if we use water for injections (WFI)? Thanks for your reply.
WFI is specifically designed for injection purposes. Just go by what the recommendations on the back of the humidifier bottle. Distilled water is just fine.
Do your lung muscles become weakened from using an oxygen concentrator, i.e., machine doing the work your own lungs should be doing❓❓
I dont believe so as your lungs are still doing the breathing. You are just breathing an higher oxygen percentage than exists naturally.
Not at all it only puts out a small amount of Oxygen were not talking about an Iron lung here
The pressure at which O2 is pumped is miniscule so its mostly your lung muscles that are doing the work

My husband has this particular concentrator. He says that sometimes it wakes him up talking to him. I haven't heard it so I don't know what it is saying. He thinks it is telling him something about his heart. He is hard of hearing so he is not sure. What is this all about and does it do this? He just knows that it wakes him up.
O2 machines dont have voice communication box.
DMEGUYS
Guardian angel perhaps? Maybe he should get his heart checked out?
Myrtle erickson get a fitness tracker to monitor his heart beat. 20 USD on Amazon. And see if his heart beat spikes overnight in his sleep. He might have sleep apnea
Name or model number? Trying to buy one of these
@@jgil8466 its phillips respioronics everflow. we use one
I want to increase my oxygen levels during rest after a long day of working out. Do I need a doctor to prescribe this? I just want more O2
There's oxygen can bottles for athletes. Oxygen boost or something like that. I'm still debating if I should get it
Too much oxygen can be toxic for your body. I wouldn't recommend more than 25% for healthy body.
@@crazyhq270 thanks for the info, so the oxygen concentrator would be the better option then?
@@jl8805 your health care provider can tell more. sometimes those who sell this stuff can tell you about setting up the ratio of oxygen to nitrogen. but be careful because more oxygen isn't necessarily good and can cause muscle twitching to death.
I believe you can adjust your oxygen flow with the use of a pulse oxymeter to monitor and determine whether you achieve a suitable level of oxygen saturation. HOWEVER, you will need to talk to your doctor to determine how much oxygen is safe for your body as too much or too little oxygen can be harmful (to your heart function and breathing).
For how many time we have to use it answer please

You are aware Covid 19 is a respiratory Infection ,Right? I just got out of the hospital treated for what the hospital called Covid Pneumonia also they did an x-ray and discovered A bloodclotting on my lung they prescribed blood thinners for this. I tried to wait it out but I have other lung issues such as Asthma, COPD, and Emphysema. When my O2 saturation dropped to 67% I knew it was time to go to the ER I have an Oxygen concentrator as I am on 3 liters of oxygen per hour daily I run my Oxygen concentrator 24 hours a day I have one of those Oxygen finger devices to tell what my O2 saturation is constantly monitor myself as you never know maybe the device doesn't put out the oxygen it should My supplier tells me my machine produces 90% oxygen.Do yourself a favor go to the hospital they had me on Intravenous antibiotics for my pneumonia they work better than taking pills they had me on these for 5 days I was also started wearing a full face mask at 15 liters of Oxygen their oxygen is purer than what you get from a home oxygen concentrator mine only puts out 5 liters when it's working properly it doesn't best I can get from my machine is 3 and 1/2 liters they had me on 15 liters for a day and a half then they took the face mask and put a canula back on me as set my oxygen at 10 liters by the end of the week they had dropped me down to 3 liters they made me walk around the hospital a couple times the RN wanted to keep a couple more days but I wasn't having it the in house Dr and my Pulmonologist said if I could get down to 3 liters and my O2 sat remained high it was now at 95 I could go home and I did after arguing with the RN about my having Emphysema and COPD I explained even if I spent another week there I still would have this disease it's not curable I went home he called in 3 or 4 prescription for Prednisone , azithromycin, And one other, after another week these prescriptions ran out I was much better. Go to the hospital it's best thing you can do
@@DouglasCobbgildamanilacobb we cant go to hospitals coz we are from india and all icu beds and hospitals are full. No oxygen and people are dying
Do you have a contract with Kaiser.

Do these machines have a low hum that goes on and off every few seconds? I have a heavy smoker living above me and I constantly hear mmmmm…mmmmm…mmmmm…mmmmm. They smoke on their balcony while my place reeks ok cigarettes, can’t even open a window anymore. It is super annoying, and I am strongly considering moving out of my condo which I love.
Discuss this with the management.

I did a background check and found that the American Lung Association gets big money from manufacturers and pharmaceutical houses for product promotions. Johnson & Johnson, for example is the ALA's biggest "donor," who hopes to convince physicians and the public to buy their NicoDerm patches and Nicorette gum products --- products that simply don't work and are expensive besides!

I’ve met crazy ppl that act like they are addicted to oxygen. Get a freaking life yall! Just another way the medical field to take more money!
