In intensive care and surgeries, oxygen is used for ventilation and in anesthesia with other medical gases.
Ventilation & Anesthesia
Emergency Medicine
In emergencies, a quick and steady oxygen supply is critical for stabilizing and treating patients effectively.
Long-term Therapy
Patients with chronic respiratory issues need continuous oxygen therapy via medical oxygen delivery systems.
Medical oxygen systems must comply with applicable standards and regulations, such as DIN EN ISO 7396-1. These standards ensure that the systems meet the highest quality and safety requirements.
Key Components and Functions
The generated oxygen is transported through a network of pipes and valves to various consumption points within the hospital. These systems are designed to maintain constant pressure and purity of the oxygen.
Medical oxygen systems are equipped with sensors and monitoring units that continuously check the condition of the oxygen and the operation of the system. In case of deviations or malfunctions, alarms are automatically triggered to enable immediate action.
To ensure the safety of patients and staff, the systems are equipped with various safety mechanisms. These include emergency shut-offs, pressure relief valves, and regular maintenance and inspection intervals.
