Medical Oxygen Concentrators Market Segment And Industry Forecasts Till, 2014 - 2025.

Medical oxygen concentrator is designed for the supply of enriched oxygen gas from a gas supply. These products were invented in the early 1970’s and have revolutionized medical treatments of chronic and acute patients. These devices use pressure swing absorption technology used to separate some gas species from a mixture of gasses. Health care applications of this concentrator are the major factor driving the overall market demand. These devices are useful in providing oxygen supply to critical patients suffering from respiratory disorders. As per the Centers for Disease control and Prevention, in 2013, around 22 million people suffered from asthma in the U.S. This device usage in the treatment of asthma patients is expected to drive the market over the forecast period.
