Oxygen Concentrator Rental & Respiratory Care at Home in Nairobi

For patients managing Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), severe pneumonia, pulmonary fibrosis, congestive heart failure, or late-stage palliative conditions, supplemental oxygen is essential for survival and comfort.

Historically, families relied on heavy metal oxygen cylinders that required frequent, stressful trips to refill stations. Modern oxygen concentrators have revolutionized home respiratory therapy by drawing surrounding air, extracting nitrogen, and delivering a continuous supply of medical-grade oxygen directly to the patient.

• 5-Liter/min Machines: Ideal for most stable chronic respiratory conditions requiring low-flow oxygen therapy (1 to 5 liters per minute). Quiet, energy-efficient, and easily movable on casters.
• 10-Liter/min Machines: Designed for patients with severe respiratory distress, acute hypoxemia, or those utilizing high-flow nasal cannulas and tracheostomy circuits.

• No Open Flames or Smoking: Oxygen accelerates combustion. Keep concentrators at least 3 meters away from gas stoves, open fires, and candles.
• Adequate Ventilation: Position the concentrator in an open area at least 30 cm away from walls to ensure unobstructed air intake.
• Clean Distilled Water for Humidifiers: Always fill the humidifier bottle with distilled water to prevent mineral buildup and bacterial colonization.
• Continuous SpO2 Monitoring: Use a digital fingertip pulse oximeter to track oxygen saturation (targeting 90%–94% or as prescribed by your doctor).
