Simply Breathe Oxygen First Response Emergency Kit Portable First Aid

This OXYGEN FIRST RESPONSE KIT is an essential emergency utility device, now usable without a prescription thanks to new MHRA guidelines. The MHRA acknowledges its potential and specifies that oxygen can be administered in an emergency when a person is struggling to breathe or breathing is impaired.

While there is currently no mechanism readily available for licensing it as a medical device (due to current regulations applying to commercial, high flow rate/high pressure cylinders), the MHRA has acknowledged that the device can be displayed as an accessory to first aid equipment. For example, it can be wall-mounted next to a first aid box with the black wall bracket as shown in the image.

The pack contains:

• Oxi meter
• 35 Litre canister of oxygen
• Medical mask and tubing
• 1 x pencil
• Oxygen recording table
• 1 X wall mounting bracket

If you are short of breath or struggling to breathe in an emergency, for any reason, the canister of oxygen (no prescription required to administer oxygen in an emergency) is conveniently on hand to assist.

The unit also utilises a unique designed and patented oxygen containment device in the form of an aerosol can, allowing it to be stored in line with everyday aerosols. The unique feature of the Simply Breathe oxygen cans is that they contain (and deliver) three times more oxygen per unit volume at the same pressure.

This is achieved by using an adsorbent in the container known as activated carbon. The activated carbon is composed of micropores which create an enormous, internal surface to which the oxygen molecules adsorb. In this way, much more oxygen is stored than could be achieved using compression alone.

For this reason, 35 litres of oxygen can be contained in a canister with a volume of only 1000 ml. Delivery of the oxygen is by mask and tube, as shown.

There are many conditions and occasions when early access and delivery to oxygen can save a life.

Ideal to be used alongside:

• First aid kits
• First aid stations
• Defibrillators
• Sporting events
• Mass attendance events
• Concerts and festivals
