African Women's Day-Protecting the respiratory health of African women

African Women's Day-Protecting the respiratory health of African women

On July 30, 2025, we usher in African Women's Day. This festival aims to celebrate the important role of African women in social development, family health and economic empowerment, and at the same time call for attention to the health challenges they face. In Africa, many women have long faced respiratory health threats due to problems such as lack of medical resources, air pollution or plateau hypoxia. AERTI home oxygen concentrator uses the power of technology to provide African women with reliable and convenient respiratory health support, helping them embrace a freer and healthier life.

Respiratory health challenges for African women

Uneven medical resources: There is a shortage of medical facilities in some parts of Africa, and patients with chronic respiratory diseases (such as asthma and COPD) have difficulty in obtaining oxygen treatment in time.

Impact of air pollution: Indoor open fire cooking, industrial pollution, etc. lead to a high incidence of respiratory diseases in women (according to WHO statistics, the proportion of African women exposed to indoor air pollution is far higher than the global average).

Plateau hypoxia problem: Residents in plateau areas such as Ethiopia and Kenya, especially pregnant women and the elderly, are prone to fatigue, dizziness and other health problems due to hypoxia.

Home oxygen concentrator: Make breathing freedom within reach

Home oxygen concentrators are designed for family health needs, with portability, low energy consumption, and 24-hour operation as core advantages, becoming the "invisible guardian" of African women's respiratory health:

Plateau adaptation: Stable oxygen supply in areas above 3,000 meters above sea level, relieve altitude sickness, especially suitable for pregnant women, the elderly and manual laborers.

Disease auxiliary treatment: Provide medical-grade oxygen support (93%±3% purity) for women patients with chronic respiratory diseases, reducing the burden of frequent medical treatment.

Healthy breathing is the basis for African women to realize their self-worth. AERTI oxygen concentrators help empower women in the following ways:

Protecting mothers' health: Reduce the risk of pregnancy complications caused by hypoxia in pregnant women and ensure the safety of mothers and babies.

Improve labor efficiency: Relieve the fatigue of female agricultural workers in plateau areas, so that they have more energy to devote to production.

Reduce the pressure of care: Home oxygen therapy allows women to take care of sick family members more calmly and reduce the time of medical treatment.

We believe that when every woman can breathe freely, the vitality of the entire society will be more vigorous. 

Salute to African women - you are the backbone of the continent, and AERTI is willing to be the arm supporting breathing.
