PORT WASHINGTON, N.Y. – Drive DeVilbiss Healthcare has launched the PulmO2 Oxygen Concentrator to improve access to oxygen therapy in low- and middle-income countries. To ensure effective delivery and operation, DDH collaborated with Sanrai International, a key partner experienced in bringing medical equipment to underserved areas, to tap into the intricacies of underserved regions and ensure the concentrator's effectiveness in the most challenging settings. "Our mission has always been to lead in creating innovative health care solutions that improve lives," said Derek Lampert, Drive DeVilbiss CEO. "The PulmO2 is a testament to our commitment to transforming challenging health care environments. We are proud to partner with Sanrai to ensure that no patient, regardless of location, is left without access to critically important oxygen." With more than a million preventable deaths annually from hypoxemia in these regions, the PulmO2 addresses a critical gap in health care, Drive DeVilbiss says. The PulmO2's advanced features make it highly effective in resource-limited settings, including energy efficiency, solar compatibility, wide voltage range, durability, high altitude operation and user-friendliness, it says.
