the removable cannula nozzle fitting. Manufacturer requires that this filter be replaced
between patients.

for each new patient. No special maintenance needs to be carried out by the patient.
Your equipment provider performs maintenance operations to assure continued
reliable service from your OxyGo. The manufacturer's instructions for the preventative
maintenance of the devices are defined in the service manual. All work must be
performed by trained technicians certified by the manufacturer.
