Whenever this kind of brain is ignorant of hypoxia, we all want to be like this Sa Beining’s emoticon package, there is a set of oxygen It would be good if the machine “saved” us.
In fact, oxygen generators have become more and more popular in recent years.
There are two main types of oxygen generators on the market, which are divided into health care type and medical type.
Health care oxygen concentrator, to put it bluntly, is a health care product with few requirements and low requirements. It does not require national medical device approval, so when you hear the word “health care”, you will know which type it is. The stuff is gone, but it still has a “health care” effect: increase oxygen supply to the brain, relieve physical fatigue, restore physical function, improve study and work efficiency, etc…

The medical oxygen concentrator, as the name suggests, is a kind of medical equipment. The oxygen produced by it must meet the national medical oxygen standard, and It can only be sold after obtaining the relevant national license for the purpose of medical treatment.
The main difference between health care type and medical type oxygen generator
So, what are the main differences between health care type and medical type? Ann takes you to take a look!
It turns out that the medical oxygen generator can keep the oxygen concentration above 90% at any flow rate, and can supply oxygen for a long time, even 24 hours a day. The health care type is inferior to the medical type in all aspects. Please see the table below:

Differentiate the oxygen flow rate, it is suitable for different people
The editor reminds you that different oxygen flow rates are suitable for different groups of people, so don’t buy the wrong one! It is well understood that the oxygen flow rate is divided into three grades: low (1~2L/min), medium (2~4L/min) and high (4~6L/min).
Next, choose an oxygen generator according to different needs:
(1) Health care for students, pregnant women, young people, and middle-aged people under 50 years old, suitable for 1 liter machine (1L/min );
(2) Health care for middle-aged and elderly people in sub-health state aged 50~70 years old, suitable for 2 liters (1L~2L/min);
(3) General mental health Adjuvant therapy for cerebrovascular diseases, respiratory diseases and health care for the elderly over 70 years old, suitable for 3 liters machine (1L~3L/min); Applicable to 5 liters (1L~5L/min).

Oxygen concentrator buying advice< /p>
The important thing is said three times:
The treatment should buy “medical type”, not “health care type”!
Treatment should buy “medical type”, not “health care type”!
Treatment should buy “medical type”, not “health care type”!
Next, there are several indicators that you should pay attention to when purchasing:
First, the oxygen concentration mentioned above must be kept above 90% before medical treatment Function;
Second, is also the oxygen flow mentioned above, which is divided into several standards.
Warning: Some unscrupulous merchants will use the maximum flow rate of the oxygen generator to pretend to be the flow rate of medical standard concentration oxygen, in order to confuse the concept, everyone must pay attention to distinguish.
The third is noise, which is particularly important for sleep quality and anxiety, and the choice of products should be controlled below 45 decibels as much as possible.
Fourth is the atomization function. This is an option, and many domestic brands have this function. For patients with respiratory diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and asthma, they not only need oxygen production and inhalation to improve lung function, but also need aerosol inhalation treatment at home. You can consider choosing an oxygen generator with atomization function, which makes home treatment more convenient, not only saves time for medical treatment, but also saves economic expenses.
