flow rate even during oxygen inhalation. TeleOx is Bluetooth Smart-enabled device
and compatible with various systems, furthermore it can store the conditions of use for
two years in built-in memories. This small device is compatible with Hi-Sanso3S,

Since 1991, Teijin Pharma has been selling systems which monitor the operating status
and oxygen flow settings of home oxygen concentrators and then providing this
information to healthcare providers via telephone networks. However, since these
systems do not monitor how much time patients have actually absorbed oxygen. Teijin
Pharma acquired the exclusive distribution rights of TeleOx in Japan from SRETT with
the aim of solving existing problems and promoting more appropriate use of home
oxygen therapy by introducing TeleOx which can detect the situation of oxygen
inhalation at home.
