Clinical Effectiveness of iGo® with PulseDose® TechnologyDeVilbiss Healthcare has been a leader in the supplemental oxygen therapy industry for over 20 years by providing robust quality and clinically efficacious products. At the cornerstone of DeVilbiss oxygen products are oxygen concentrators with the ability to provide 90% oxygen purity (+/- 3%) throughout the life of the product. DeVilbiss oxygen concentrators are sold worldwide and continue to be a market-leading solution. In the early 90’s, DeVilbiss brought important innovation to the oxygen industry with the introduction of PulseDose oxygen conserving technology. Oxygen conserving devices are attached to the top of an oxygen cylinder to regulate the flow of oxygen. While there are other oxygen-conserving devices on the market, PulseDose quickly became the gold standard in this area because of its ability to deliver a precise and consistent bolus or “shot” of oxygen at the moment a user inhales. Other oxygen-conserving devices would deliver an inconsistent amount of oxygen when the user would start to breathe faster (due to physical activity), or even skip the delivery of oxygen on some breaths. PulseDose is able to maintain its precise delivery, regardless of how quickly the user is breathing. The DeVilbiss iGo Portable Oxygen System features built-in patented PulseDose technology – allowing the iGo to keep pace with users regardless of their activity level. The iGo in PulseDose mode delivers a consistent bolus size of 14 ml per prescription setting. The precise amount of oxygen delivered for each prescription setting is as follows: 1 LPM = 14 ml per breath Oxygen delivery in PulseDose mode is very efficient (10 liters per minutes), allowing oxygen to be delivered deep in the lungs and increasing the amount of usable oxygen. Finally, PulseDose technology minimizes discomfort often associated with continuous-flow oxygen. By delivering oxygen only when it is required by a user, dryness in the nose and associated discomfort can be alleviated. The image below demonstrates how PulseDose delivers oxygen. As soon as inhalation begins, PulseDose senses it and delivers a fast, precise, consistent bolus of oxygen. Designed to meet: HCPCS Code E1392 and E1390 Weight: 19 pounds (8.6 kg) with Battery; 15.5 pounds (7.0 kg) without Battery Dimensions (H x W x D): 15” x 11” x 8” (38cm x 28cm x 20cm) Flow Rate Settings: 1 to 6 settings in PulseDose® Mode 1 to 3 LPM in Continuous Flow Mode Max. Recommended Continuous Flow: 3 lpm Oxygen Concentration : 91% +- 3% for all flow settings Operating Temperature: 41°F to 104°F (5°C to 40°C) Transportation and Storage Temperature: -4°F to +140°F (-20 to 60°C) Altitude: 0 – 13,123 feet (0 - 4,000 meters) Bolus Size: 14.5ml per setting (This is consistent across all settings, unlike other devices which can decrease the bolus size at higher settings.) Battery Watt Hour Rating: 98 x 2 = 196 Consent Form from Your Doctor for iGo Use on AirlinesAll airlines require a completed and signed licensed physician’s
consent form related to your portable oxygen concentrator (POC) before you
will be allowed to board the aircraft. This is to verify that you require
use of your POC and know how to operate it. Because your iGo has been
approved for airline use by the FAA, it must be allowed on flights that
originate or end inside the United States.
In general, airlines require you to do the following if you will be using a portable oxygen concentrator (POC) on a flight –
Most airlines have their own physician's consent form. Check with your airline or travel agent to obtain a copy. Click here for links to physician's consent forms/information for some of the major U.S. airlines.

To view the entire DEVILBISS IGO USER MANUAL CLICK HERE APPROVED AIRLINESEffective May 13th of 2009 every US air carrier must permit the use of approved portable oxygen concentrator (POC) devices on all domestic and international flights. This is also true for foreign carriers but only on flights departing or returning to US soil. A new ruling was instituted by the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) in May this year requiring airlines to accept certain approved portable oxygen concentrators (POC’s) aboard flights. The DOT will give airlines time to implement these changes until May 13, 2009. This rule will apply to U.S. air carriers worldwide and to foreign air carriers whose flights begin or end in the U.S. The Department of Transportation has not yet decided whether to require airlines to provide free in-flight medical oxygen to passengers.
Airline Consent FormsDEVILBISS IGO FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONSFrequently Asked Questions iGo™ Portable Oxygen System Q1: How long will the iGo battery pack operate the unit?A1: The actual run time of the iGo on the internal battery pack depends on several factors, including flow rate, breath rate, altitude, temperature and the age of the battery pack. Following are run-time estimates for the iGo with a new, fully charged battery
pack:
Q2: Will the run time of the iGo battery pack change? A2: Yes. As lithium ion batteries age, the duration of operation will decline. The iGo battery pack may operate at as low as 80% of its usual life when it was new. Q3: Can I use an external charger to charge the iGo battery pack? A3: Not at this time. An external charger will be available as an accessory in the future. Q4: Can I use the iGo in a different carrying case? A4: No. iGo can only be used inside an approved DeVilbiss carrying case. Approved carrying cases have proper ventilation screens to provide adequate airflow for operation and cooling. Q5: My iGo is plugged into an AC wall outlet, but the battery is not charging. Why is this? A5: If the battery is too hot or too cold the iGo charge circuit will not charge the battery. Please allow the battery to warm or cool to room temperature before charging. Q6: The iGo is making noise while plugged in even though I am not using it. Why is this? A6: The internal cooling fan on the iGo will continue to operate while charging the battery. This is done to keep the battery at an appropriate temperature and speed up the charge time. The fan will shut off as soon as the battery is charged. Q7: I keep pressing and holding the up or down arrows to set the flow rate, but the flow rate does not change. Why is this? A7: You must press the button once for each setting. This is done to prevent accidental flow rate changes. Q8: Can I use the iGo at high altitudes? A8: Yes. iGo can be used at altitudes up to 13,000 feet or 4,000 meters. The iGo battery may not last as long at different altitudes due to the change in the amount of oxygen available. Q9: What percentage of oxygen does the iGo deliver? A9: iGo provides 91% oxygen, +/- 3%. This purity has been tested to be clinically acceptable for long-term oxygen therapy. Q10: Can I use a humidifier bottle with iGo? A10: Yes and no. You can only use a humidifier bottle with iGo while in the continuous flow mode. A humidifier bottle cannot be used while the iGo is set to pulse mode. Q11: Can I use the iGo 24 hours per day? A11: Yes. iGo may be used for continuous oxygen therapy. Q12: Can I use the iGo without a battery pack? A12: Yes. iGo can be operated from an external power source if the battery pack is not installed. Q13: What maintenance is required for the iGo? A13: The dust filter located inside the handle recess should be cleaned regularly. There is no other routine maintenance during the first 3 years of operation. Q14: Can I leave iGo plugged in continuously even though the battery is fully charged? A14: Yes. The iGo stops charging the battery once it is full. There is no danger in leaving the iGo plugged in. Q15: How do I know how much power remains in the battery? A15: Install the battery into the iGo, and turn the unit on without external power connected. The battery status indicator will display the amount of power remaining. Q16: What happens if the power fails while I’m using the iGo? A16: If you are operating the iGo from an external power sources and the external power fails, the iGo will automatically switch to the internal battery pack (if the battery is installed). If the external power resumes before the battery is fully discharged, iGo will automatically switch back to external power. If the external power does not resume, the iGo will provide battery status indications, and the iGo will sound an audible beep. The external power light on the control panel will blink once the battery is fully depleted. If there I no internal battery pack installed, the iGo will sound an audible beep, and the external power light on the control panel will blink immediately. Q17: How do I know if the iGo is set to continuous flow? A17: The green light beside the mode select button will be lit continuously. Q18: How do I know if the iGo is set to pulse mode? A18: The green light beside the mode select button will blink each time a breath is sensed. Q19: How can I tell if the oxygen purity is good? A19: As long as the green O2 light is illuminated, the iGo is delivering the proper purity of oxygen. If the purity drops below the proper level, the yellow O2 light will be illuminated. You may continue to use the iGo even though the yellow light is on, but you should quickly find an alternative oxygen source. If the purity continues to drop, the red service light will illuminate. You should immediately find an alternative oxygen source. Q20: How long of an oxygen tube can I use with iGo? A20: You may use a tubing length of up to 35 feet (10 meters) when in pulse mode and up to 50 feet (15 meters) while in continuous flow mode.
