Abstract
An apparatus for patient oxygen supply monitoring includes a housing, a microcontroller, at least one sensor, and a power supply. The housing has at least one port for mechanically coupling to a gas supply tube of an oxygen gas delivery system. The microcontroller is positioned within the housing, and the at least one sensor is operably coupled to the microcontroller and positioned within the housing. The power supply is positioned within the housing and configured to supply power, during operation, to the microcontroller and to the at least one sensor. The microcontroller monitors the oxygen gas delivery system by receiving data generated by the at least one sensor when the at least one port is mechanically coupled to the gas supply tube and when oxygen is flowing through the at least one port.
