Who is the oximeter suitable for? Blood oxygen detection standard finger clip pulse oximeter Principle of finger clip oximeter Advantages
From a medical analysis, the oxygen content in the blood is greater than or equal to, which is a normal indicator. The pulse rate per minute is between times, which is a normal indicator. If the values you detect do not meet the above two indicators, please test at different time points and maintain continuous testing for days. If the values still do not meet the standards, it is recommended that you go to the hospital for detailed consultation.
Oximeter, as the name suggests, refers to an instrument for measuring blood oxygen. Patients with hypoxia should use the oximeter for a long time to detect blood oxygen content, which can effectively prevent danger. If hypoxia occurs, supplement oxygen as soon as possible. , greatly reducing the chance of disease attacks.
The original oximeter was developed in the 1990s. It monitors the ratio of hemoglobin that carries oxygen to hemoglobin that does not carry oxygen in the arteries. A typical oximeter has two LEDs. The two LEDs face the patient's fingertips or earlobes. One diode emits a beam of light with a wavelength of nanometers, and the other emits a beam of light, or nanometers. The absorption of these two wavelengths by oxygenated hemoglobin is very different from that without oxygen. Using this property, the ratio of the two hemoglobins can be calculated. The testing process usually does not require blood to be drawn from the patient. A common oximeter can also display the patient's pulse.
Features of the oximeter
It is convenient and quick to use. You don’t have to go to the hospital to collect blood, and you don’t have to endure the pain of your skin. Just put it on your finger and you can accurately see your health status in seconds.
It is safe and trouble-free and there is no possibility of cross-infection. Because there is no need for bleeding, you can avoid the tedious waiting in line for examination, and you can check your physical condition anytime and anywhere.
Working principle of oximeter
Fingertip (finger type) pulse oximeter uses infrared light technology to accurately detect human blood oxygen saturation and brightness through the finger skin and musculoskeletal tissue. pulse. Different from blood collection examination, it is highly safe, there is no need to worry about blood infection, it is painless and highly accurate, and its accuracy fully complies with EU standards.
Applicable people: This oximeter is suitable for people of all ages, including children, adults, and the elderly. Normal people also need to monitor their physical condition at any time. If you or your family or friends have any of the following symptoms, it is even more necessary to equip yourself with a fingertip pulse oximeter.
People with vascular diseases (coronary heart disease, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, cerebral thrombosis)
There is lipid deposition in the blood vessel cavity, and the blood is not smooth, which will lead to difficulty in oxygen supply. Using an oximeter can easily check the blood oxygen status of the human body.
For cardiovascular and cerebrovascular patients, the blood is thick, coupled with coronary artery sclerosis, the blood vessel cavity is narrowed, resulting in poor blood supply and difficulty in oxygen supply. The body is deprived of oxygen every day. With long-term mild hypoxia, the functions of organs that consume large amounts of oxygen, such as the heart and brain, will gradually decline.
Severe hypoxia can cause myocardial infarction or cerebral infarction. Failure to provide timely oxygen first aid can lead to death from fragmentation. Therefore, long-term use of pulse oximeter to detect blood oxygen content in cardiovascular and cerebrovascular patients can effectively prevent danger. If hypoxia occurs, the decision to supplement oxygen is made immediately, which greatly reduces the chance of disease attack.
People with respiratory diseases (asthma, bronchitis, chronic bronchitis, cor pulmonale)
Difficulty breathing resulting in limited inhalation of oxygen.
Blood oxygen testing of respiratory patients is indeed very important. On the one hand, difficulty breathing will lead to insufficient oxygen uptake. On the other hand, the persistence of asthma will also cause the small branch organs to be blocked, making gas exchange difficult, leading to Hypoxia occurs, causing varying degrees of damage to the heart, lungs, brain and even kidneys. Therefore, using pulse oximeter to detect blood oxygen content can greatly reduce respiratory tract morbidity.
Elderly people over 20 years old
The physiological aging of the heart and lung organs leads to insufficient oxygen uptake and insufficient oxygen supply.
The human body relies on blood to transport oxygen. If there is less blood, there will naturally be less oxygen. With less oxygen, the physical condition will naturally decline. Therefore, the elderly should use pulse oximetry to check the blood oxygen content every day. Once the blood oxygen falls below the warning level, they need to supplement oxygen as soon as possible.
To respect the elderly, give him or her a blood oximeter. Why spend so much money?
People who work more than 10 hours a day
The brain’s oxygen consumption increases, and the oxygen supply cannot meet the consumption.
The brain's oxygen consumption accounts for % of the whole body's oxygen uptake. When mental work transitions, the brain's oxygen consumption will inevitably increase. The human body can only take in limited oxygen, so it consumes more and takes in less. In addition to causing problems such as dizziness, fatigue, poor memory, and slow reaction, it can also cause serious damage to the brain and myocardium, and even death from overwork. Therefore, people who study or work for many hours a day must use pulse oximetry to check their blood oxygen content every day. , monitor blood oxygen health at all times to ensure heart and brain health.
Sports, fitness
Extreme sports and blood oxygen monitoring in high mountain hypoxic environments.
Real-time blood oxygen monitoring of athletes can help understand the blood circulation of athletes after heavy exercise to guide the formulation of athletes' exercise intensity. Passengers and journalists entering Tibet by train on the Qinghai-Tibet Railway need to have their blood oxygen tested. Through blood oxygen monitoring, problems with the blood's oxygen carrying or supply can be discovered in advance to avoid cyanosis caused by mountain reaction, which may cause harm to the body.
Faced with the dazzling variety of blood oximeters on the market, how to choose a convenient and practical one?
Currently, some smart oximeters on the market have built-in correction functions. Using them to measure finger blood can obtain results similar to those measured by biochemical meters for venous blood. Some
manufacturers' products come with quality control fluids and test cards to specifically test the accuracy of the oximeter and whether the oximeter is working properly. Please ask when purchasing.
, the size and clarity of the display screen, whether the battery is easy to replace, whether the appearance is beautiful, the size, etc. When looking at the accuracy, first of all, it should be clear that the accuracy of the current home oximeter does not meet the diagnostic standards. . However, the blood oxygen content value measured by it should be similar to the value measured by the biochemical instrument on venous blood, and should not be too different.
When looking at the warranty items and other after-sales services, you should understand the warranty period of the oximeter.
, look at the brand and price. When choosing an oximeter, you should not only look at the price of the instrument, but also consider the cost of consumables. In addition, the product quality of the branded oximeter is guaranteed and the measurement results are more accurate.
The pulse oximeter integrates the design technology of today's miniature precision instruments. It is only the size of a lighter, mini and takes up almost no space. It is suitable for business people to use when traveling or traveling. It is convenient for middle-aged and elderly people and children to self-test, which is safe and secure, saving time and worry.
