physician or Equipment Provider for
the type of reserve system required.
It is very important to select only the pre-

Operator Profile

Concentrators are intended to supply supplemental
oxygen to users suffering from discomfort due to
ailments which effect the efficiency of one's lungs
to transfer oxygen in the air to their bloodstream.
Stationary oxygen concentrators (SOCs) do not
store or contain oxygen. They do not need to
be refilled, and can recharge anywhere AC or
DC power. Oxygen concentrator use requires a
physician's prescription and is not intended for life
support use.
Although oxygen therapy can be prescribed for
users of all ages, the typical oxygen therapy user
is older than 65 years of age and suffers from a
variety of respiratory diseases, including Chronic
Obstructive Pulmonary Disorder (COPD). Users
typically have good cognitive abilities and must
be able to communicate discomfort. If the user
is unable to communicate discomfort, or unable
to read and understand the concentrator labeling
and instructions for use, then use is recommended
only under the supervision of one who can. If any
discomfort is felt while using the concentrator,
users are advised to contact their healthcare
provider. Users are also advised to have back-up
oxygen available (i.e. cylinder oxygen) in the event
of a power outage or concentrator failure. There are
no other unique skills or user abilities required for
concentrator use.
