The Inogen One Cart is available to help you transport your Inogen One G3 or Inogen One G5 portable oxygen concentrator unit. We heard our customers when they asked for a specially designed cart just for our Inogen One G3 and Inogen One G5 units, so we created a cart designed to be used in conjunction with the G3/G5 devices, while in use with the carry bag, providing versatile mobility options for the patient. Read on to learn more about how the Inogen One Cart.
Until now the Inogen One G3 and the Inogen One G5 could be carried using the provided carrying bags. Even though both of these portable oxygen concentrators are lightweight (4.7 lbs. for the Inogen One G5 and 4.8 lbs. for the Inogen One G3), patients requested another transport option. The Inogen One Cart allows you to roll your Inogen One G3 or G5 unit in its carrying case, rather than exclusively carrying it on your shoulder or back, offering you more options for mobility.
There are two different slots available inside the Inogen One Cart so it works for both the Inogen One G3 and the Inogen One G5. These slots help ensure that your Inogen One portable oxygen concentrator unit sits securely in the cart. Since you place your portable oxygen concentrator in the cart inside of its carrying bag (provided with rental or purchase), the carry bag handle slips over the Inogen One Cart handle, providing added protection. Even while secured in the cart, your Inogen One unit’s controls are accessible.
The Inogen One Cart is lightweight, weighing just 3.25 lbs. This cart is collapsible by way of a push-button handle, just like a rolling airline suitcase. Once collapsed, the cart is just 17.68 inches tall, and it is always 12.51 inches wide. The Inogen One Cart is also adjustable to fit your stature, with two height levels available to help you hold and pull it comfortably. The collapsible handle can be lifted to 34 inches or fully extended to 41 inches so that you can choose the handle height that works best for you.*

How to Exercise with an O2 Concentrator
Many people with breathing difficulties learn about the benefits of exercise after seeing their doctor or beginning pulmonary rehabilitation. Exercise gets your heart pumping and increases your breathing rate, which means increased circulation of oxygenated blood throughout the body. This can help your body with oxygenation of the tissues and, the better shape your muscles are in, the better they are at using oxygen effectively. With regular exercise, your muscles will require less oxygen and produce less carbon dioxide, reducing how quickly you need to breathe and how quickly you feel out of breath. Regular exercise also strengthens your heart and improves circulation, which continues to help improve your body’s oxygenation. In short: Regular exercise can help improve lung function, symptoms of lung conditions and overall heart health and circulation. All of these combine to create better oxygenation in the body and improved overall health, even for people with lung conditions and breathing difficulties.[1]
So, if you struggle with your breath while exercising, should you consider EWOT?
Portable oxygen concentrators (POCs) are devices developed in response to demand for a lightweight, portable source of supplemental oxygen.[1] Pulse dose delivery allows concentrators to deliver medical grade oxygen all day, every day while remaining convenient to carry.
