The oximeter, or pulse oximeter, is a medical instrument which, especially recently, has become widespread, both in medical and hospital environments and also at the level of individual homes, being particularly simple to use not only for doctors,but also for patients.
The reason is unfortunately linked to the epidemic of __KEEP_2__.The oximeter was in fact an effective tool for detecting breathing difficulties, and during the pandemic it often represented the first indication that one could find oneself faced with a case of Covid.
It is essential to equip yourself with a precise, excellent quality instrument,a certified professional oximeter that only the best retailers can offer.
What is the oximeter
The oximeter is an instrument that allows you to measure the quantity of oxygen present in the blood.
Its oxygenation is in fact linked to the quantity ofhemoglobin in the blood.
There are different types of oximeters on the market, more or less sophisticated.The values expressed by a professional oximeter are in percentages: in a normal situation the value is between 98 and 100%.
Oxygen enters the body with breathing: when it arrives in the pulmonary alveoli the oxygen from the air is introduced into the blood circulation and anhydride is instead expelledcarbonic.Oxygen is then transported to all organs and tissues in the body via a protein called hemoglobin.
The __KEEP_2__ is a virus that limits the supply of oxygen into the human body, causing a drop in the percentage of oxygen that binds to hemoglobin,a process called "saturation".
A oximetry determines how much oxygen is brought into the body: if it has a value lower than 94%, this is a symptom of a probable Covid infection.
The operation of a pulse oximeter is quite simple: it is based on light waves,which penetrate through the skin reaching the blood circulation.Oxygenated hemoglobin absorbs light at precise wavelengths: this device, by detecting possible variations,manages to determine its presence by recording it in a precise numerical data.
Difference between oximeter and pulse oximeter
A professional oximeter allows you to detect the percentage of oxygen present in the blood, but not only that.In fact, it also allows you to measure the heart rate and intensity of the patient's pulse.
Depending on the function it must perform, a pulse oximeter can also be called a pulse oximeter.A pulse oximeter, in particular, underlines the ability of this instrument to measure the intensity and frequency of cardiac pulsation.
There really are many types of oximeters or pulse oximeters, of different sizes and complexity,depending on the degree of diagnostic depth required.
Finger oximeters
The most widespread oximeters are certainly the finger oximeters.
Extremely small and handy, they are devices that can be easily used by anyone and which, especially during the pandemic,they have also spread widely among the common population.
A finger oximeter is normally positioned at the end of the index finger and provides all the required data in a few seconds.
The best finger oximeter or pulse oximeter also has more complex functions,such as the ability to store the saturation data, but also the pulse and pulse data, of different patients.
Furthermore, there are very good models of pediatric oximeter or oximeter for newborns on the market, with characteristics particularly adapted to smaller patients,like the holes to hold the small index finger.They are tools that a pediatrician should always have available.
Wrist oximeters
A good solution is certainly represented by the wrist oximeter.
Small and light,the wrist oximeter + suitable for measurements both at home and in a clinical setting or for sports use.It is a tool suitable for both the short and long term thanks to the integrated PC software.
A GIMA professional oximeter is comfortable to wear (it looks like a watch in every way) and can detect up to 500 hours of data,transmittable to the PC via software.
The wrist oximeter can be worn on the wrist as if it were a watch and used to measure both the patient's oxygen saturation and heart rate.
Handheld pulse oximeters
Among the best professional oximeters we find ahandheld pulse oximeter same model Mindray PM-60.
This is a device for use in a hospital setting, which allows you to continuously monitor both saturation and pulse rate for up to 99 different patients,preserving the precise data of each one.
A handheld oximeter can be suitable for both adults and children, and is equipped with audible alarms in case of detection of anomalies.An advantage of the handheld oximeter is its very small dimensions, 12x5.5 x 3 cm, which make it an ideal tool for any doctor in a hospital setting as it can always be carried with you.
