Accessories

Vitalair can provide a wide variety of acessories for use with oxygen equipment, free of charge. All of these items can be delivered by one of our Patient Service Representatives.

Face Masks

We can provide a wide variety of face masks, suitable for both adults and babies depending upon prescription requirements.

Cannula

It is recommended that a patient changes their cannula every 2-4 weeks. The Patient Service Representative can provide the patient with replacement or spare cannula the next time they viist the patients home. Alternatively, a patient can contact the Vitalair team and we can post a spare cannula direct to the patients home.

Flowmeters

If a patient requires a low flow rate then you should advise us so that we can deliver the appropriate flowmeter along with the rest of the oxygen equipment.

Flowmeters can be connected to either a standard portable cylinder or concentrator to provide low flows (0.1 - 1 litres per minute) or ultra low flows (0 - 0.2 litres per minute).

Carrying Devices

Vitalair can provide either a carry bag or a lightweight trolley* to help a patient get out more easily.

Two carry bags have been specifically designed for the lightweight cylinder and the standard portable cylinder. Both bags incorporate a carry handle and two rucksack-style straps. An external pocket has been incorporated in order to hold an oxygen conserving device.

(*A trolley is an alternative to patients who find carrying oxygen cylinders difficult. The trolley is both lightweight and easily manoeuvrable which will help patients to continue with their daily activity. This item may carry a charge)
