As a global pioneer in the field of respiratory care for over 15 years, we take this fight against COVID-19 seriously. While we understand that this is a nerve-racking time, we want to assure you that Olive is taking all the recommended precautions to keep our team healthy and continue to fulfill product orders.

The virus attacks our lungs and respiratory systems, and it is very likely to worsen into toxic pneumonia if left untreated. On top of this, COVID-19 is deadly to those who are already suffering from immunodeficiency and respiratory diseases.

Oxygen concentrators are devices that concentrate the oxygen from our surrounding by selectively removing nitrogen from the common air around us. It helps in delivering oxygen therapy to people with breathing disorders. It is a portable and cost-effective option, good for hospital & home use.

Olive series medical oxygen generator adopts 110V/220V AC power supply, uses air as raw material and high-quality molecular sieve as adsorbent, and adopts the principle of pressure swing adsorption (PSA) to directly separate oxygen from nitrogen at normal temperature, oxygen of high purity is thereby produced.

A major issue with the patients suffering from COVID-19 is breathlessness. As per ASTMH – ‘The symptoms start arising within 7-10 days of illness. Several drug trials are underway, but the current treatment for severe COVID-19 depends majorly on providing the best possible oxygen supportive care'.

Patients infected with COVID-19 virus may suffer from mild to severe symptoms. Hospitals being overcrowded and lack of availability of ventilators in underprivileged settings is a challenge for everyone. Oxygen concentrators are proving to be very helpful in such situations. As the majority of cases are patients with mild symptoms who  don't require ventilator support, breathing therapy by oxygen concentrator helps in stabilizing the health of the patient.

Oxygen concentrators have many plus points and are contributing to the fight against coronavirus.

If a person gets infected from coronavirus, there are some symptoms that should start reflecting. But as the cases are on the rise, doctors have observed patients who are missing these symptoms. This is termed as silent hypoxia, where the patient's oxygen level drops but he/she does not feel any abnormality.

Here, you should use a Pulse Oximeter to keep a check on the levels of oxygen saturation in your blood. The normal oxygen saturation usually lies between 95% – 100% (SpO2). When this drops below 92% (SpO2), you should seek immediate medical assistance. We all should keep the device at home and monitor regularly.
