The OxySure® Model 615 is a safe, easy-to-use portable oxygen system that uses two dry, inert powders to generate medical oxygen quickly and safely. Model 615 can and has been placed in public places, schools, businesses, churches, government buildings as well as in the home to allow a layperson or bystander to provide oxygen in medical emergencies during those first, critical minutes while waiting for professional medical assistance. OxySure's Model 615 was approved by the FDA for Over-The-Counter (OTC) sale and therefore does not require a prescription. Since April 2008, there have been hundreds of emergencies in schools and school districts, in restaurants, and in commercial and home settings in which OxySure has been successfully used.
