Help Axel Breathe Easier with Portable Oxygen

Hello people,

My name is Axel,

I was recently diagnosed with COPD. Supplemental oxygen therapy can help people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) breathe easier, stay active, and improve their quality of life. COPD constricts the airways, making it harder for the lungs to send oxygen into the bloodstream. Low blood oxygen levels, or hypoxemia, can damage organs and be life-threatening. Oxygen therapy can help by increasing the amount of oxygen that flows into the lungs. Some people with COPD will need oxygen therapy only when doing something strenuous, such as during exercise or extended periods of walking. Other COPD patients may only need oxygen therapy at night. Many patients are prescribed oxygen therapy; however, they need oxygen continuously day, night, and when traveling, and they will need to find a versatile solution to provide portable oxygen for COPD and fit their lifestyle.

The shift from traditional, cumbersome oxygen therapy equipment to modern, portable solutions significantly enhances the quality of life for COPD patients by providing them with the flexibility and convenience needed to manage their condition effectively, thereby enabling greater mobility and independence.

Oxygen comes in gas or liquid form. Oxygen systems may be large and stationary for home use or small and portable. Types of oxygen therapy delivery systems include:

Oxygen concentrators: This electric or battery-powered device pulls air from the room. It then separates and compresses oxygen from the air while also removing nitrogen. You breathe in the purified air. With a concentrator, you’ll never run out of oxygen. Concentrators are the easiest portable system to travel with. Many models meet the Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA) acceptance criteria for POCs used onboard aircraft, so you can even take them on planes.

To address the urgent need for accessible healthcare, I will argue that raising $3,000 for a mid-grade oxygen concentrator is a crucial step in improving the quality of life for individuals with respiratory issues. This not only provides essential medical support but also alleviates the financial burden on families struggling to obtain necessary equipment.

Please help.

Hola mi gente,

Mi nombre es Axel,

Recientemente me diagnosticaron COPD. La terapia de oxígeno suplementario puede ayudar a las personas con enfermedad pulmonar obstructiva crónica (COPD) a respirar mejor, mantenerse activas y mejorar su calidad de vida. La COPD contrae las vías respiratorias, lo que dificulta que los pulmones envíen oxígeno al torrente sanguíneo. Los niveles bajos de oxígeno en sangre, o hipoxemia, pueden dañar los órganos y poner en peligro la vida. La terapia de oxígeno puede ayudar al aumentar la cantidad de oxígeno que fluye hacia los pulmones.

Algunas personas con COPD necesitarán terapia de oxígeno solo cuando hagan algo extenuante, como durante el ejercicio o períodos prolongados de caminata. Otros pacientes con COPD pueden necesitar terapia de oxígeno solo por la noche. A muchos pacientes se les prescribe terapia de oxígeno; sin embargo, necesitan oxígeno de forma continua durante el día, la noche y cuando viajan, y deberán encontrar una solución versátil que les proporcione oxígeno portátil para la COPD y se adapte a su estilo de vida.

El cambio de los equipos de terapia de oxígeno tradicionales y engorrosos a soluciones modernas y portátiles mejora significativamente la calidad de vida de los pacientes con COPD al brindarles la flexibilidad y la comodidad necesarias para controlar su afección de manera eficaz, lo que les permite una mayor movilidad e Independencia.

Thank You for help!
