Supplemental Home Oxygen Therapy and Services
Apria offers multiple options for oxygen systems for patients who need supplemental oxygen at home. Matching the system with the patient's medical and lifestyle needs, we provide the most appropriate supplemental oxygen system utilizing concentrators, liquid and/or cylinder systems and conserving devices.
- Oxygen concentrators: These devices allow patients to receive uninterrupted continuous oxygen without running empty. Concentrators are more mobile than stationary liquid reservoirs or oxygen cylinders, and can be wheeled to any location within the home and within a reasonable distance outside the home.
- Liquid oxygen systems: Our portable or stationary liquid oxygen systems may be appropriate for patients who want to remain active and participate in exercise rehabilitation, or for patients who have high continuous liter flow requirements. If you are a new or traveling patient, be sure to check with your local Apria to ensure liquid oxygen availability.
- Cylinder oxygen systems: For non-ambulatory patients who require a low liter flow or high liter flow for intermittent usage, we offer a range of oxygen cylinders.
- Oxygen conserving devices: Conserving devices may be used in combination with standard cylinder systems to reduce the amount of oxygen that escapes, and to extend the usable hours of a standard cylinder setup. When used in combination with oxygen cylinders, oxygen-conserving devices can provide patients with the convenience of mobility and longer use of their supplemental oxygen.
