Two oxygen concentrators were transferred to Stryj Central City Hospital (Chief Physician Osyp Behey) and two – to Peremyshlyany Central District Hospital (Chief Physician Bohdan Livyj). Another concentrator will be used for needy patients who are treated at home and cannot breathe freely without additional oxygen supply.

Oxygen concentrators separate oxygen from atmospheric air and supply patients with highly concentrated oxygen (more than 90%). When used properly, they prevent the development of complications and deterioration of health. This equipment will help to provide oxygen therapy to people with respiratory disorders characteristic of coronavirus infection.
