EasyPulse Flow Conserving Flowmeter

Product catalog summary

Overview: The EasyPulseFlow conserver/flowmeter is designed for use with low-pressure systems (50-55 psi) and offers both Continuous Flow and Pulse Dose modes. It aims to reduce oxygen consumption and waste, thereby saving costs on medical oxygen.

Specifications: The device measures 7.9 inches in height, 1.9 inches in width, and 2.5 inches in length, weighing 10.4 oz. It operates within an inlet pressure range of 50-55 psi and offers Pulse Dose settings from 1 to 5, with a conserving ratio of up to 5.7:1. The Continuous Flow range is 0-15 lpm, with a maximum flush flow of 24 lpm. It requires a 7-foot adult single lumen nasal cannula and functions effectively up to 35 breaths per minute.

Clinical Evaluation: A trial conducted at Presbyterian Intercommunity Hospital evaluated the EasyPulseFlow's clinical and economic feasibility. Over 90 days, 57% of patients successfully used the Pulse Dose mode, while 36% required the Continuous Flow mode due to shallow or mouth breathing. The trial resulted in an 8% decrease in oxygen purchases despite increased patient admissions and a rise in oxygen costs.

Conclusion: The EasyPulseFlow flowmeter effectively reduces oxygen consumption and costs, even amidst increased hospital admissions and rising oxygen prices. The trial demonstrated its potential for significant savings in a hospital setting.
