Description: A pulse oximeter is a noninvasive device typically placed on a fingertip to estimate the oxygen saturation of the blood and the pulse rate. It uses light beams to measure the amount of oxygen carried in the blood, providing an estimate without the need to draw blood. The device usually displays two or three numbers: the oxygen saturation level (SpO2), presented as a percentage, the pulse rate (PR), and sometimes a third number for the strength of the signal. Healthy individuals typically have oxygen saturation values between 95% and 100%. Key features of a pulse oximeter include the Blood Oxygen Saturation (SpO2) reading, Pulse Rate (PR) reading, Pulse Bar Graph, Plethysmograph, and an Alarm. The plethysmograph is an SpO2 waveform that indicates the amount of blood flow detected by the pulse oximeter, with each wave corresponding to a heartbeat. The alarm feature allows the user to define a range for the SpO2 and PR parameters, triggering when readings exceed the defined range. Pulse oximeters can be used in various settings, including at home, in hospitals, and during physical activities. They are particularly useful for monitoring oxygen saturation in individuals with conditions like Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, Asthma, Pneumonia, Lung Cancer, Anemia, Heart Attack or Heart Failure, and Congenital Heart Disease.
