My dad has been dealing with COPD and asthma for the past decade, and now hes got to use oxygen at home around the clock. Were using a cylinder with the supply kept at point 1, but Im wondering if switching to an oxygen concentrator would be a good idea. Would an oxygen concentrator be enough for his needs, or should we stick with the cylinder?

I'm really concerned about my dad. He keeps experiencing these sudden moments where he loses his breath for like a second while he's asleep. Could this be something serious? Should we be looking into this further?
