Intended Use
The Walk-O2-Bout® is an integrated portable oxygen delivery system intended to provide supplemental oxygen to pediatrics and adults in hospital, sub-acute care, and pre-hospital / ground transport settings. It is offered in models that are MR-conditional (per ASTM F2052-15), and intended for use during MR imaging for static magnetic fields of 3.0 T or less. Compressed gas cylinders in service or in storage shall be stabilized or otherwise secured to prevent falling and rolling.
Device Story
Walk-O2-Bout® is an integrated portable oxygen delivery system; consists of a pressure regulator designed for installation on medical-grade aluminum cylinders (0.750-16 UNF-2B threads). Device reduces high-pressure oxygen (300-2000 psig) to a nominal 50 psig for delivery. Features include flow selector valves (0-25 L/min), threaded fill fitting (CGA 540), DISS 1240 check valve for ventilator supply, and vinyl-dipped carrying handle. Operated by clinicians in hospitals, sub-acute care, and transport settings. Provides supplemental oxygen to patients; output flow is controlled by the clinician based on patient needs. MR-conditional models allow use in imaging suites. Benefits include portable, regulated oxygen delivery with ignition fault resistance.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Substantial equivalence established via bench testing, including performance testing for gas tightness, flow regulation, pressure relief, mechanical resistance, endurance, ignition (ASTM G175), and MR-conditional testing (ASTM F2052-15).
Indicated for pediatric and adult patients requiring supplemental oxygen in hospital, sub-acute care, and pre-hospital/ground transport settings. Includes MR-conditional models for use in static magnetic fields up to 3.0 T.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A pressure regulator is a device, often called a pressure-reducing valve, that is intended for medical purposes and that is used to convert a medical gas pressure from a high variable pressure to a lower, more constant working pressure. This device includes mechanical oxygen regulators.
