The Importance of How You Breathe

The Importance of How You Breathe

If you have Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, you are probably well familiar with being short of breath. In general, this is the reason why people with COPD often have a lower blood oxygen level – so low that you may need to use oxygen therapy, on top of other medications. Aside from a shortness of breath, breathing shallow can be a big problem. When we breathe shallow, we aren’t taking a complete breath, and our lungs can’t absorb the amount of oxygen we need to stay healthy.

With emphysema, your lungs have become damaged over time because of tobacco smoke. Commonly in this situation, hyperinflation of the lungs is to blame for shallow breathing and not being able to take a deep breath. Shallow breathing not only means you can’t breathe in deeply, you also can’t properly exhale all of the air in your lungs. The trapped air in the lungs is high in CO2, since that is the gas that we exhale. Your lungs know when you have a build up of CO2, and they attempt to get rid of it – this is when you experience quick shallow breathing and are short of breath.

The Importance of Extra Batteries

The Importance of Extra Batteries

The whole point of having a portable oxygen concentrator, is to be able to move about wherever you want to go, without having to be plugged into something stationary. What makes this possible is how small and light your concentrator is, and its ability to run on a battery. The only problem with batteries, is eventually they drain and you will need to recharge it from a power source before being 100% mobile again.

You can avoid the hassle of rushing to get to a power source in time to charge your concentrator battery, by having a few extra batteries. All it takes then, is some planning ahead before you leave the house, to have a few batteries charged up and ready to use in your concentrator when the first battery is depleted.
