Portable Oxygen Concentrators with Backpack Options

One of the defining characteristics of a portable oxygen concentrator is its compatibility with an active lifestyle. Most portable oxygen concentrators come in under six pounds, which means that most patients will be able to carry them with relative ease. For an even easier carrying profile, Main Clinic Supply offers backpack options for several top brands of portable oxygen concentrators. These help distribute the weight of the concentrators across the shoulders, making them feel almost weightless. They also free up the hands, allowing the patient to perform daily tasks more easily.

These backpacks also feature additional compartments designed for portable oxygen concentrator accessories, including cannulas and batteries. Many models feature:

• Tubing ports
• Mesh panels for improved airflow
• Reinforced compartments for extra padding to protect the device

• Frequent travelers
• Users who like to go on long walks or hikes

Choosing the Right Backpack for a Portable Oxygen Concentrator

Fit and Compatibility: At Main Clinic Supply, we suggest purchasing a backpack that’s designed for a portable oxygen concentrator. When a backpack is designed for a specific product, it’ll fit correctly, have mesh in the right areas for unit cooling, and the ports and vents won’t be blocked. When choosing a generic backpack, it can be challenging to access the batteries, and the ports for tubing may not be properly aligned for optimal use. As a general rule, we suggest purchasing a manufacturer-approved or purpose-built backpack for the specific product.

Weight Distribution and Comfort: These backpacks help add comfort and ease to products designed for portability, so always err on the side of comfort, especially when the device is being used for longer outings. We suggest adjustable padded shoulder straps to fit the patient's body, breathable back panels to help reduce sweating, and reinforced bases that prevent sagging during the backpack's life.

Additional Storage Space: Backpacks are more than just comfortable and weight-bearing; they also offer storage options that are useful for patients. With compartments, the back can bring along extra batteries, cannulas, power cords, and personal items. While minimalist backpacks can be stylish, we suggest purchasing backpacks with extra compartments for convenient storage.
