FlexO2: A patient-controlled oxygen flow selector improving autonomy and daily function in long-term oxygen therapy (LTOT)

FlexO2 significantly improved the ease of oxygen dose adjustment and physical activity capacity, potentially enhancing patient autonomy in LTOT. While overall patient-reported quality-of-life scores improved, objective quality-of-life outcomes remained stable. Further studies are warranted to explore long-term clinical outcomes and the potential impact on caregiver burden.

Abstract

FlexO2 significantly improved the ease of oxygen dose adjustment and physical activity capacity, potentially enhancing patient autonomy in LTOT. While overall patient-reported quality-of-life scores improved, objective quality-of-life outcomes remained stable. Further studies are warranted to explore long-term clinical outcomes and the potential impact on caregiver burden.
