Pulse Oximeter Mini Portable Fingertip TFT Display

Overview

Pulse oximetry is a non-invasive and painless test that measures your oxygen saturation level or the oxygen levels in your blood. It can rapidly detect even small changes in how efficiently oxygen is being carried to the extremities furthest from the heart, including the legs and the arms.

The pulse oximeter is a small, clip-like device that attaches to a body part, like toes or an earlobe. It’s most commonly put on a finger, and it’s often used in a critical care setting like emergency rooms or hospitals. Some doctors, such as pulmonologists, may use it in the office.

Purpose and uses

The purpose of pulse oximetry is to check how well your heart is pumping oxygen through your body.It may be used to monitor the health of individuals with any type of condition that can affect blood oxygen levels, especially while they’re in the hospital. These conditions include:

chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)

asthma

pneumonia

lung cancer

anemia

heart attack or heart failure

congenital heart defects

There are a number of different common use cases for pulse oximetry, including:

to assess how well a new lung medication is working

to evaluate whether someone needs help breathing

to evaluate how helpful a ventilator is

to monitor oxygen levels during or after surgical procedures that require sedation

to determine how effective supplemental oxygen therapy is, especially when treatment is new

to assess someone’s ability to tolerate increased physical activity

to evaluate whether someone momentarily stops breathing while sleeping — like in cases of sleep apnea — during a sleep study
