The fingertip pulse oximeter is designed for quick and mobile measurement of oxygen saturation and pulse rate. The pulse oximeter can be used in family, hospital and sports areas (not for use during exercise, but can be used before and after exercise). The fingertip pulse oximeter is small in size, low in power consumption, easy to handle and portable.

A pulse oximeter is a non-invasive device that assesses the amount of oxygen in the blood, which is measured using infrared rays from a finger. The device measures how much infrared light is reflected from gases.

The reading shows what percentage of a person's blood is saturated with oxygen – this is called the SpO2 level.
