Patient-controlled flow restriction of oxygen supply from oxygen concentrators.
Introduction
Your doctor has determined that oxygen supplements would be beneficial to you and has prescribed two
oxygen levels, one dose during exertion and one dose during rest.
To avoid having to move to the oxygen concentrator to adjust the dose, you have the FlexO2 connected
with reach, for example hanging around your neck, so that you can then yourself select between these
doses in a safe way.
In this way, you can, for example, when seated or lying down change from rest mode to activity mode
(see image 2) without having to move and exert yourself unnecessarily.
When changing from rest to activity mode, you turn the handle so that it points to the larger symbol. You
get a short “puff” that can be felt and is audible. The puff is completely normal and it shows that the
activity flow is selected.
When you change FlexO2 back from activity to rest, turn the handle so that it points to the smaller
symbol (see image 4). You will now get an oxygen dose adapted for rest.
S-hook
An S-hook can be used ( not included ) where one ha
lf is fastened to a hole in the patient’s trousers, belt or
button hole as close as possible to the midpoint vertically under FlexO2.
