Drive SmartDose Mini Auto Adjusting Oxygen Conserver

More Information

• How SmartDose Works:
  - Extends the use time from a supply of oxygen by only delivering oxygen during the portions of the breath that put the gas into the lungs
  - Delivers a volume of oxygen on each breath, right at the start of inhalation. It delivers the full dose (bolus) of oxygen within 2/3 of the inhale cycle
  - By doing so, it is not delivering oxygen at the end of inhalation or during exhalation, as other devices do
  - The normal volume of oxygen that SmartDose delivers is 16 ml per setting, so that a setting of 2 delivers 32 ml of oxygen on each breath, in the first 2/3 of the inhale cycle
  - SmartDose monitors a patients breathing patterns and automatically turns up the oxygen volume by one setting during exertion, and if breath rate continues to rise, by another setting
  - Many patients turn their settings up and down throughout the day, but this self administered approach is inconsistent and by the time most patients feel the need to turn it up, their oxygen levels have already dropped
  - SmartDose responds more quickly and consistently
  - SmartDose recognizes when exertion stops and lowers the volume back down to normal levels thus saving oxygen
  - Again, this is often an improvement over manual adjustments since patients often forget to turn the volume down after exerting. Most patients are able to be titrated at lower base settings due to SmartDoses efficient delivery and auto-adjusting features
  - This extends the use time of your oxygen supply. SmartDose also uses a multi-valve system that has multiple delivery flow rates. The unit can deliver a volume at two flow choices
  - The unit constantly monitors the patients breath rate and determines the lowest flow option to fit the oxygen into the first 2/3 of the inhalation cycle
  - By delivering at lower flows, the unit is more comfortable, and quieter than units that deliver at higher flows all the time

   Great Regulator

   I can only use an electronic regulator as my breathing is to shallow and will not trigger a regular regulator. I have had the regulator for at least ten years and I love it. I am able to do more because of it. I would highly recommend it.

   Best Conserving Regulator very responsive

   I have used the Drive SmartDose Mini Auto Adjusting Oxygen Conserver regulator for more than five years. I need as much as 10 liters/min. I use a split cannula to use two tanks. I keep a "ready" cart with filled tanks with conservers attached for emergencies and I have two that I use around the house. Pulse dose saves my nose! Very reliable only had one go sour on me. Yes, they are worth every penny! The automatic adjustment of pulses means I can keep my SPO2 up while my tanks last longer.
   
   I have been buying from Health Products for You for several years and find them one of the easiest to work with for my Oxygen needs.

   not sold on it yet

   the need for longer tank usage made it necessary to switch to this regulator...from a continuous flow to on demand is hard to get used to...and this one puffs more air if it thinks you need it...
