The Fingertip Pulse Oximeter is a portable medical device used to measure oxygen saturation levels (SpO2) and pulse rate (PR) in a non-invasive manner. Here's a detailed description:
The Fingertip Pulse Oximeter is designed to provide quick and accurate readings of oxygen saturation levels and pulse rate, making it an essential tool for monitoring respiratory and cardiovascular health.
Its primary function is to measure the percentage of oxygen-carrying hemoglobin in the arterial blood (SpO2) and the number of heartbeats per minute (pulse rate).
The oximeter typically features a digital display screen that shows real-time measurements of oxygen saturation (SpO2) and pulse rate (PR).
The readings are displayed numerically, along with a waveform graph indicating the pulse rhythm.
The oximeter is equipped with a sensor probe that is placed on the fingertip, earlobe, or other suitable area with good blood perfusion.
The sensor probe contains light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and photodetectors to measure the light absorption and calculate oxygen saturation and pulse rate.
