- Authors
Murphie, Phyllis
- Abstract
The article explores the oxygen equipment options for home delivery of oxygen services. It notes that these options have evolved due to several factors that include technological innovations, financial pressures within the National Health Services (NHS) prescribing budgets and increased patient demands for lighter weight systems. These options include the ambulatory oxygen therapy, the portable concentrator technology and liquid oxygen.
