- A professional-grade, handheld fingertip pulse oximeter designed for rapidly measuring oxygen saturation (SpO2) and pulse rate in both adult and pediatric patients, commonly used in clinical, hospital, and home healthcare settings for spot-checking or short-term monitoring
Uses
- Spot-Checking:
- Quick, real-time assessment of SpO2 and heart rate during triage or examinations
- Patient Monitoring:
- Suitable for monitoring patients with respiratory conditions (e.g., COPD, pneumonia) or cardiac conditions
- Alternative Environments:
- Can be used in high-altitude, cold-temperature, or, in some cases, athletic/aviation contexts
Features
- Display:
- Features a high-resolution, dual-color LED/OLED screen that shows SpO2, Pulse Rate (PR), a pulse bar, and a plethysmogram (waveform)
- Display Modes:
- Offers 6-way viewing modes for easier reading from different angles
- Design & Build:
- Compact, portable, and durable with a "locking" battery door, often including a protective rubber boot
- Power:
- Powered by 2 AAA batteries, providing approximately 30 hours of continuous use
- Alarms:
- Includes visual and audible low-battery indicators
- Light Interference:
- Features side "wings" to block ambient light for improved accuracy
