Thank you for your thoughtful response!I didn't give all the details, but we had a physician with us through the design process. We also had our end-user monitor her oxygen levels over a long period while wearing the device to see if there was any difference. I would certainly encourage anyone considering using this to do the same, and to take it off if it doesn't work well. By definition this object is only useful for active, mobile oxygen users. It is also worth considering what the risks of a fall are, because that was our end-user's big concern after a few close calls. There is a tradeoff.Hopefully some medical company will read this and make their own version...that would be wonderful.
