<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a portable oxygen concentrator easy to handle and carry and supplying a moderate amount of oxygen which is necessary for a patient, and its system, and an accessory usable for them. <P>SOLUTION: The portable oxygen concentrator system includes an energy source, an air separation device driven by the energy source and adapted to convert ambient air into concentrated oxygen gas, at least one sensor adapted to sense one or more conditions indicative of the concentrated oxygen gas needs of a patient, and a control unit interrelated with the air separation device and the sensor to control the air separation device so as to supply an amount of oxygen gas equivalent to the oxygen gas needs of the patient at least in part from the one or more conditions sensed by the sensor. The accessory for the oxygen concentrator includes a communication means adapted to communicate with the oxygen concentrator and a computer in remoteness so as to transmit information about the patient of the oxygen concentrator and/or the oxygen concentrator. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT |
