Sometimes an oxygen concentrator with a high flow is necessary to meet a patient’s oxygen requirements. A higher setting is often needed for more severe cases of low oxygen in the bloodstream. When someone with healthy lungs takes a breath, they are really only breathing in 21% oxygen in the air. For someone with moderate to severe COPD, that percent will be much lower.

Oxygen concentrators support two types of oxygen delivery flow – continuous and pulse (or intermittent). To clarify, continuous flow oxygen setting puts out a constant flow of air through the nasal cannula or mask, irrespective of when a patient breathes. Pulse dose releases oxygen in pulses, also referred to as a bolus, usually according to the patient’s breathing pattern.

There are two kinds of oxygen concentrators, known as home oxygen concentrators[1] (HOC) and portable oxygen concentrators[2] (POC). You can ...
