Oxygen is vital therapy where delivery accuracy is crucial, especially for infant patients, to ensure treatment effectiveness and prevent the risks of hypoxia or toxicity. With the implementation of the mandatory Domestic Product Utilization Policy (TKDN+BMP ≥ 40%), evaluating the quality of local products has become an urgent necessity. This study aims to test and analyze the quality and accuracy of domestically produced infant oxygen flowmeters compared to an imported product. The method used was experimental testing, measuring three brands of domestic products and one brand of foreign product at flow rate settings of 0.5, 1, 1.5, and 2 liters per minute (LPM). Each setting point was measured 10 times using a standardized calibrator to ensure data reliability. The measurement results were analyzed to identify the deviation level of each product. The findings of this study are expected to provide an objective conclusion on the quality equivalence of domestic products with imported ones and to identify which product has the lowest deviation rate. This can serve as scientific consideration for hospitals in selecting high-quality infant oxygen flowmeters, thereby supporting the domestic product policy.
