Inogen Announces Release to Market of the Inogen At Home(TM), an Innovative Home Oxygen Concentrator
GOLETA, Calif., Oct. 21, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Inogen, Inc. (Nasdaq:INGN), a medical technology company offering innovative respiratory products for use in the homecare setting, announced today that it has released to market its innovative home oxygen concentrator called the Inogen At Home™.
The Inogen At Home is the lightest five liter per minute continuous flow oxygen concentrator on the market today. At approximately 18 pounds, the Inogen At Home is more than 10 to 20 pounds lighter than current oxygen concentrators from leading manufacturers with equivalent flow capacity. Additionally, the Inogen At Home has low power consumption, which should reduce the cost of electricity for oxygen therapy patients.
"Inogen is proud to release the Inogen At Home to the market this week and we believe we have created a home concentrator with product attributes that will be patient preferred," said Raymond Huggenberger, CEO.
Inogen's release of the Inogen At Home, combined with their award winning Inogen One family of products, positions the Company with a complete product portfolio able to fulfill the clinical requirements of most oxygen therapy patients. While the Inogen One product line is clinically validated for 24/7 use, the Inogen At Home gives Inogen a compelling solution for nocturnal-only oxygen therapy patients that do not yet require a portable solution, which are estimated to represent 30% of total oxygen patients in the United States.
The Inogen At Home was released for purchase by oxygen therapy patients this week. More information on the product including how to purchase can be found on Inogen's website at www.inogen.com.
Inogen has used, and intends to continue to use, its Investor Relations website, www.inogen.com/investor, as means of disclosing material non-public information and for complying with its disclosure obligations under Regulation FD. For more information, visit www.inogen.com/investor.
