ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method for sensing a concentration of oxygen in a flow of gas in a breathing circuit for a patient. A biasing voltage is provided across a zinc-air cell so that the zinc-air cell produces a current having a magnitude, wherein the magnitude of the current corresponds to the concentration of oxygen in the gas.
