Items That Help Keep Your Lungs Strong During COVID-19

Do you have the tools you need to keep your lungs healthy and strong throughout COVID-19? Respiratory supplies are in short supply and high demand throughout the U.S. with the coronavirus pandemic expected to be just warming up. Many people find themselves risking infection by traveling from store-to-store in search of such critical medical supplies only to find them sold out everywhere. However, Medical Supply Group has these healing and health-boosting items in stock and ready to ship directly to your home or office with no contact required.

Help Your Immune System
Give your immune system some support with our zinc sulfate tablets that may improve your body's ability to fight off a respiratory illness like COVID-19. These supplements are flying off the shelves everywhere and are often sold out at most locations. However, at Medical Supply Group, we cultivate strong long-term relationships with our suppliers in an effort to offer our customers top quality products when they need them the most. Speak to your physician about whether our 220 mg zinc sulfate tablets is suggested to aid in your overall ability to resist infection from COVID-19 and other viral or bacterial illnesses.

Reduce the Risk of Infection 
Another way to stay healthy is by adding protective equipment to your routine when in public such as wearing face masks and gloves or bringing hand sanitizer when you leave the house. Although it can be a challenge to find face masks to purchase, we have a full stock of cloth face masks, surgical masks, and KN95 respirators. These items when combined with our disposable gloves, hand sanitizer, social distancing, and infrared thermometer can give you the confidence you need to stay healthy and reduce your chances of either becoming infected or spreading diseases like COVID-19 to the community.

Build Your Lung Power 
Since COVID-19 is a respiratory illness, many people are at a high risk of developing pneumonia. To reduce this risk, ask your physician about using a lung exercising device like our incentive spirometers. Medical professionals prescribed these items to help you take deeper breaths to expand your lung capacity and increase the amount of air you intake. In other words, it's a workout for your lungs. Plus, just as with all forms of exercise, the incentive spirometers have a measurement goal that can be increased as your lungs improve. Best of all, no supervision or joint-taxing exercise is required for these devices, and using them can become a part of your daily routine both at home and while traveling.

Keeping Track
Speaking of measurements, these devices give physicians an indication of your body's ability to fight infection and perform necessary functions. They enable you to conduct helpful medical tests at home without the use of needles, surgical procedures, lab equipment, or medication. Plus, having them on hand for your video conference with your doctor can save time and assist your doctor with devising an effective treatment plan.

     1) Pulse Oximeters - You already know your lungs require oxygen, but did you know that your lungs also supply vital oxygen to your body's cells? A pulse oximeter will let your doctor know if your lungs are healthy by measuring the blood oxygen levels traveling to your cells. The measurement is taken by placing the device on your finger and allowing the pulse oximeter to calculate the amount of light that is passing through your blood. At Medical Supply Group, we have two hospital-grade models of pulse oximeters for your selection that offer accurate readings to share with your medical team as well as replacement batteries for both.

     2) Blood Pressure Monitoring - Be ready for your telemedicine appointment with your doctor by writing accurate and precise blood pressure readings from one of our high-quality blood pressure monitors. Along with weight scales, these measurements are very important to devise health goals and treatment options. If you are at risk of forming pulmonary hypertension or currently struggle with this illness, having this device at home can provide your doctor with key information that indicates if your lungs are performing at optimum levels.
