Chronic respiratory diseases, particularly chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), are among the leading global causes of morbidity and mortality, with millions of new cases diagnosed annually. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), COPD was the fourth leading cause of death worldwide in 2021, accounting for 3.5 million fatalities. The rising prevalence of COPD is driven by factors such as smoking, environmental pollution, and an aging population. Against this backdrop, oxygen conservation devices have become indispensable. These devices optimize oxygen delivery, reduce wastage, and enhance treatment accessibility, significantly contributing to market growth.
 

Oxygen conservation devices are medical instruments designed to optimize the delivery and utilization of supplemental oxygen for patients requiring respiratory support. These devices regulate oxygen flow, ensuring that the patient receives oxygen primarily during inhalation, thereby minimizing waste.
