eDiTion 1/2011 the innovative elite oxygen conserving device conserves oxygen, and thus prolongs the service life of the cylinder. elite also increases the mobility of the patient. thanks to the system’s precision metering, the o2 cylinders last approximately 3 times longer than with simple pressure regulators without a conserving system, without any loss of therapeutic effect. ELITE offers major advantages: Ease of handling. Just screw a pressure regulator onto the cylinder, turn the cylinder on, adjust the flow rate at the rotary switch and you are ready to go. No batteries required. You can save money, and potential sources of error are removed. The special rotatable pressure gauge can be read easily from all angles. No expensive special masks. Wear your normal standard nose mask. The light weight (580 g incl. pressure regulator), the ease of handling and the robust design off er patients optimum suitability for everyday use and maximum comfort.

Technical Description During exhalation oxygen collects in a reservoir. At the start of the inhalation, the diaphragm detects the negative pressure in the nose. This opens a valve delivering the oxygen to the patient at the start of the breath. The oxygen delivered correlates closely to the established method of constant flow across a range of breathing rates. The Sabre Elite automatically adjusts oxygen delivery on a given setting to the patient’s breathing rate. For higher breathing rates there is less time for the oxygen to collect. The patient will therefore get smaller pulses, but more...
