Qualitative Model for an Oxygen Therapy System based on Renewable Energy

In Ecuador, the existence of chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases and the appearance of new viruses such as Covid-19 that cause respiratory problems, influence the development of oxygen therapy services. These services improve the health of some patients and increase life expectancy in others. However, the limited care capacities in the hospital centers of Ecuador and the lack of development of self-sufficient technological equipment for the provision of therapeutic oxygen services, mean that said service is carried out mainly in large cities, leaving aside other geographical areas with populations that also require it. This article explores the implementation of an oxygen therapy system based on the use of alternative energies, to be used in the treatment of people who cannot do without supplemental oxygenation in communes and homes. In addition, a control system based on linguistic rules for oxygen supply is proposed. Finally, the closed loop response of the control system is analyzed.
