Conditions

To Determine the Efficacy of Two Liquid Oxygen Device

Brief summary

Some oxygen conserving devices have been developed to diminish oxygen expense. These devices offer optimisation of oxygen therapy for deambulation by improving time autonomy of patients.

Interventions

DEVICEOxygen conserving devices

Three 6MWT test will be performed at random with conventional oxygen continuous-flow,by Oxymizer Pendant and demand valve system. The percentage of patients correcting their desaturation and patients' acceptance of every method will be determinated.
