A pulse oximeter is a non-invasive device that can be used to measure the saturation of oxygen in the blood. They are easy to use and can be used by anyone, even people who aren’t medically trained. What does a pulse oximeter measure? A pulse oximeter is used to measure the percentage of oxygen in the blood (SpO2). Measuring the oxygen saturation of the blood is important to check that blood oxygen levels don’t dip too low. A healthy person has no reason to think their blood oxygen saturation will dip to a dangerous level. Normal blood oxygen saturation is around 95% to 100%. Can a pulse oximeter detect heart rate? Most pulse oximeters are also capable of measuring heart rate and will display this on the screen next to blood oxygen saturation. Pulse is measured in beats per minute (BPM). A normal adult heart rate is between 60 and 100 BPM. Who needs a pulse oximeter? Pulse oximeters are used in medical settings like hospitals and emergency rooms to monitor patients’ conditions. They are also used in places like care homes for the same reason. Lung cancer, asthma, pneumonia, arthritis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, cystic fibrosis, congestive heart failure, and congenital heart disease are conditions where SpO2 needs to be monitored People who suffer from these conditions might need to keep an eye on blood oxygen levels in particular when exercising or after exercising, when transitioning from low to high altitudes, and when they are unwell. At Steroplast, we offer the Nonin PalmSAT 2500 Pulse Oximeter which is extremely adaptable and can be used on adults, children, and infants.
