Abstract

An aspect of the disclosure is a diagnostic system. The diagnostic system includes a communications interface, an output gas interface, one or more sensors, and a controller that is configured to execute a diagnostic procedure. The diagnostic procedure causes the controller to transmit one or more commands to the oxygen concentrator using the communications interface, to obtain the one or more gas property measurements from the one or more sensors during operation of the oxygen concentrator, and to determine a diagnostic result by comparing the one or more gas property measurements obtained from the one or more sensors during operation of the oxygen concentrator to a testing standard described by the diagnostic procedure. The diagnostic procedure also causes the controller to output information regarding the diagnostic result for display to a user.

Claims20

Dependent claims

A diagnostic system, comprising:

a communications interface that is configured for communications with an oxygen concentrator;
an output gas interface that is configured for pneumatic communication with the oxygen concentrator in order to receive an output gas from the oxygen concentrator;
one or more sensors that are configured to obtain one or more gas property measurements of the output gas that is received from the oxygen concentrator using the output gas interface;
and
a controller that is configured to execute a diagnostic procedure, wherein the diagnostic procedure causes the controller to:
transmit one or more commands to the oxygen concentrator using the communications interface, wherein the one or more commands are configured to cause operation of the oxygen concentrator,
obtain the one or more gas property measurements from the one or more sensors during operation of the oxygen concentrator, and
determine a diagnostic result by comparing the one or more gas property measurements obtained from the one or more sensors during operation of the oxygen concentrator to a testing standard described by the diagnostic procedure, and
output information regarding the diagnostic result for display to a user.

6 more elements

A diagnostic system, comprising:

a communications interface that is configured for communications with an oxygen concentrator;
an input gas interface that is configured for pneumatic communication with the oxygen concentrator;
a gas supply that is configured to supply an input gas to the oxygen concentrator using the input gas interface, wherein the controller is further configured to operate the gas supply to provide the input gas from the gas supply to the oxygen concentrator;
a controller that is configured to execute a diagnostic procedure, wherein the diagnostic procedure causes the controller to:
transmit one or more commands to the oxygen concentrator using the communications interface, wherein the one or more commands are configured to cause operation of the oxygen concentrator,
supply the input gas to the oxygen concentrator,
obtain the one or more gas property measurements during supply of the input gas to the oxygen concentrator, and
determine a diagnostic result by comparing the one or more gas property measurements to a testing standard described by the diagnostic procedure, and
output information regarding the diagnostic result for display to a user.
