The PDOC is indicated for use in both the hospital and home care environment where a demand oxygen delivery system is indicated. The PDOC allows for the effective administration of high pressure medical grade or concentrated oxygen upon demand to a patient who has been diagnosed as requiring and which has been prescribed oxygen administration by a physician. Oxygen is administered only during the inhalation cycle, conserving oxygen during the exhalation cycle.
Device Story
Pneumatic Demand Oxygen Conserver (PDOC) is a mechanical device for supplemental oxygen delivery; connects to high-pressure medical grade or concentrated oxygen sources. Operates via pneumatic demand mechanism; senses patient inhalation to trigger oxygen flow; conserves oxygen by ceasing flow during exhalation. Used in hospital and home care environments; operated by patients or healthcare professionals. Benefits patient by extending duration of oxygen supply through conservation. No electronic or software components.
Technological Characteristics
Pneumatic demand oxygen delivery system; mechanical operation; no electronic or software components; designed for high-pressure medical grade or concentrated oxygen administration.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients with respiratory or physiological conditions requiring supplemental oxygen therapy, as prescribed by a physician or healthcare professional. Suitable for use in hospital and home care settings. No specific age or gender restrictions noted.
Regulatory Classification
