Teleflex Oxygen Conserving Cannula, 7 ft

What is 921851-Each Teleflex Oxygen Conserving Cannula, 7 ft?

The 921851-Each Teleflex Oxygen Conserving Cannula, 7 ft is a medical-grade nasal cannula engineered to deliver oxygen more efficiently than standard continuous-flow models. Featuring 7 feet of flexible oxygen supply tubing, this device uses pulse-dose technology to release oxygen only when the user inhales, helping extend tank life and reduce waste. It's designed for individuals managing chronic respiratory conditions such as COPD or emphysema who rely on portable or stationary oxygen systems for daily support.

Key features

• Oxygen Conserving Technology — Delivers oxygen on inhalation to improve efficiency and extend tank duration.
• 7-Foot Tubing — Provides ample reach for mobility around beds or chairs without tangling.
• Soft Nasal Prongs — Contoured for comfort during extended wear.
• Single-Patient Use Design — Promotes hygiene and reduces infection risk.
• Lightweight Construction — Minimizes ear and facial pressure during long-term use.
• Universal Fit — Compatible with most oxygen regulators and concentrators.
• Latex-Free Material — Safe for patients with latex sensitivities.

Who is 921851-Each Teleflex Oxygen Conserving Cannula, 7 ft for?

This cannula suits patients requiring long-term oxygen therapy, especially those using portable oxygen tanks or conserving devices. It’s ideal for home care, travel, or clinical settings where oxygen efficiency and patient comfort are essential. Elderly users and those with limited mobility benefit from the extended tubing and reduced oxygen consumption.

How does 921851-Each Teleflex Oxygen Conserving Cannula, 7 ft compare?

Compared to standard continuous-flow nasal cannulas, this model significantly improves oxygen efficiency by delivering pulses only during inhalation. While traditional models waste oxygen during exhalation, this conserving design extends cylinder life by up to 50%, making it more cost-effective over time. It outperforms basic polypropylene cannulas in durability and comfort but may not be compatible with all non-pulse-dose oxygen systems. It’s a step above economy models in performance while remaining affordable at $3.50 per unit.
