Fingertip Pulse Oximeter - 50DL
Display content: blood oxygen SPO2 value, pulse PR value, blood oxygen bar graph
The use of a pulse oximeter is “highly recommended” by the World Health Organization during the Coronavirus outbreak.
Patients who are identified as likely positive for COVID-19 in an emergency department but are not admitted are being sent home with a thermometer and pulse oximeter to monitor their symptoms at home under the supervision of the health system's telehealth team.
Our pulse oximeter accurately and quickly analyzes your pulse rate and blood oxygen saturation levels. The device is equipped with a large LED display, which allows for easy readings. Simply insert your finger into the clip and press the button to get your pulse rate and blood oxygen within 10 seconds. Because of its compact size, you can carry it everywhere you go, ready to use in any situation.
The device is FDA approved, making it reliable and safe for daily use. It offers an efficient way to stay aware of your health. However, it should not be a replacement for medical professionals.

On Friday night I showed symptoms of flu — cough, aches, fever, chills — the worst I’ve ever felt. Because I had a flu shot this winter, I emailed my doctor to see if I should be tested for the coronavirus. Since test kits were not widely available, he encouraged me to get an oximeter (measures the estimated oxygen saturation of red blood cells). I am to monitor at home, and if my oxygen saturation drops beneath 92, consider proceeding to the emergency room.
Precautions
Please follow these steps for accurate readings:
- Warm your hands before use by rubbing them together. This increases your blood flow and allows the oximeter to function properly
- During the reading, keep your hands still
- Normally, it takes under 10 seconds, but some users need longer for readings to stabilize. If that is the case, wait about 30 seconds for readings to stabilize
- Be warned that nail polish may cause inaccurate readings
