OxiGen Pod
Within 15 seconds of oxygen deprivation, consciousness is lost, followed by brain damage. Protect the brain – use OxiGen Pod
What is OxiGen Pod?
OxiGen Pod is a device invented by an anesthesiologist that takes an innovative approach to deliver significantly higher oxygen compared to a face mask or nasal cannula.
How is OxiGen Pod used?
OxiGen Pod is used for spontaneously breathing individuals who require supplemental oxygen. It is placed between the top and bottom molars on either side. The oxygen tubing is connected to an oxygen source.
What makes OxiGen Pod better than a facemask or a nasal cannula?
Face masks and nasal cannulas deliver oxygen “around the face”. Almost half of the oxygen gets diluted by the air in the respiratory pathways by the time it reaches the lungs.
OxiGen Pod takes an innovative approach by delivering oxygen closer to the tracheal inlet. OxiGen Pod essentially channels oxygen through the shortest route to the lungs.
Has OxiGen Pod been tested to validate its performance?
An FDA-approved third-party lab tested the oxygen delivery of OxiGen Pod. During a side-by-side comparison with a face mask, an oxygen sensor at the tracheal level captured 58% oxygen with the face mask and a significantly higher 96% oxygen delivery with OxiGen Pod.
Access to the oral cavity
Access to the oral cavity helps with two important maneuvers. It facilitates draining the secretions, vomit, or blood out of the mouth. It also helps an oral airway placement to relieve upper airway obstruction by medically trained staff
