Technical Description
How the device functions:
The EVOLUTION MOTION includes a combination of a low-pressure regulator and an oxygen conserver. It is designed for
TM
use with a cylinder as an ambulatory oxygen system and is capable of delivering a precise amount of supplemental oxygen
at the optimal point in the breathing cycle. The EVOLUTION MOTION greatly increases the efficiency in the delivery of
oxygen, maximizing the beneficial effects and eliminating unnecessary oxygen waste. The EVOLUTION MOTION is
designed to sense the precise moment in the patient's breathing cycle when it has to deliver the oxygen pulse. It
accomplishes its intended purpose by providing supplemental oxygen to a patient requiring nasal oxygen therapy in a
manner that yields a high level of efficiency in the consumption of the oxygen administered. The EVOLUTION MOTION
conserver's responsive and rapid oxygen delivery time increases the oxygen concentration provided to the patient, thus
increasing the ability to better maintain patient saturation levels.
Principles of dosing, timing, triggering and settings:
The EVOLUTION MOTION delivers a uniform oxygen pulse which ensures that, if you breathe faster, you will still receive
TM
the sameamount of oxygen with each breath. The device is electrically powered using electronic and mechanical
components. A pulse dose of oxygen is triggered by sensing a pressure drop at the beginning of inhalation and is timed to
deliver the dose within the first half of the inhal ation. A setting of 1 produces the smallest dose, and a setting of 6
produces the largest dose. The cf setting produces continuous flow of 2 liters per minute.
NOTE: The components in the medical gas path and the nasal cannula are considered applied parts.
CAUTION : Combinations with medical devices other than recommended can alter the performance of the
equipment (example: combinations with reservoir cannula, extended length tubing).
