Oxygen Concentrator Questions

Post by momofthree » Thu Oct 21, 2010 8:51 pm

Hello again and thanks again to all of you for your support.

It is official, our four year old with CSA is going to be on oxygen at night! The Neurologist is contacting the DME to set us up and I wanted to know if any of you have recommendations for Oxygen Concentrators.

They are going to put him on a low flow to start out with. On the last sleep study (the 15th) they tried .25 and .5 liters to see which one would work best (not sure where it will be set at yet as we have not been contacted by the DME and we actually don’t see the neruo till the 28th)

Does anyone here have any recommendations on brands or models, pro's or con's....?

Thank you!
