An oxygen concentrator filters oxygen from the atmosphere and can help boost oxygen level. It is essential as it helps in buying crucial time when the patient’s oxygen levels drop. Deploying oxygen concentrators at hospitals will also help in reducing dependence on refilling cylinders and their transport.
