Treatment Using Supplemental Oxygen - Invacare Polaris EX CPAP with SoftX ISP3000 Operator's Manual

Treatment Using Supplemental Oxygen

DO NOT smoke or have an open flame in any room
where oxygen is used.
Oxygen is a prescription gas and should only be used
under the supervision/direction of a physician. Should you
require oxygen during CPAP therapy, refer to your
oxygen system user manual and observe all cautions,
warnings, and instructions regarding the safe use of
oxygen.
The oxygen flow MUST be turned off when the device is
not operating. This prevents oxygen accumulation within
the device and tubing which may cause a fire.
1. Ensure the oxygen gas supply valve is closed.
2. Connect the oxygen adaptor to the Polaris EX CPAP unit
air outlet.
3. Connect the CPAP hose to the oxygen adaptor.
4. Connect the oxygen tubing to the oxygen adaptor.
5. Connect the oxygen supply tubing to the oxygen source.
6. Press the Enter button to activate therapy and start the
blower.
7. Turn on the oxygen source supply to the setting prescribed
by your physician.
8. Attach the smooth bore tube to the mask and begin
treatment.
9. Proceed to the After the Treatment on page 32.
NOTE: At a fixed flow rate of supplemental oxygen gas flow, the
inhaled oxygen concentration will vary, depending upon the
pressure settings, patient breathing pattern, mask selection, and the
leak rate.
