The oximeters measure oxygen saturation in the blood using a transcutaneous electrode with an infrared beam and shows us the heart rate.

Here are very complete models that calculate the measurement of CO2, O2 saturation, and apnea alarm feature, tricolor flag, among other functions.

The sensors are part of the interface between the oximeter and patient. We have wide variety of sensors, whether articulated, reusable or disposable, which are suited to each situation and patient.

Oximeter 8500 m
Pulse oximeter saturation figures showing and heart rate. Ideal for intermittent records pulse and oxygen saturation. The printer memory is optional as is the case.

From the smallest on the market. It features integrated sensor tricolor indicator to facilitate the correct reading. Weight 62gr. Uses 2 AAA batteries lasting approx. 12 continuous hours.

9847 Oximeter
Pulse oximeter with measurement of CO2. It is the most complete in its line since it has apnea alarm, O2 saturation, CO2 sensor and a tricolor flag. Requires 6 AA batteries. It has a size of 8 * 15 * 2 cm. and has a weight of 310gr. One year warranty. You can buy a kit and CO2 sensors for separately.

R Neo Flex Sensor.
Reusable neonatal sensor. Durable, easy to clean and is comfortable for long-term studies. They are used 8000TH tapes that are replaceable.

2500 Palm Oximeter
72hrs has memory for storing data. It is very easy to use and which consists with 2 buttons. It weighs 211gr and battery life is 100hrs. Can be used with any sensor.

3100 Wrist Oximeter
Oximeter designed to be used in the wrist like a watch. Ideal for reading during the day and night. 24hrs of battery life and memory 33hrs. Works with any sensor Nonin.

Articulated Sensor Pet.
For patients 10 to 40kg. Is placed on the index or middle finger. The use may be continuous or occasional. It is reusable, durable, comfortable and easy to clean.

Sensor article ad.
Usually used in patients over 30kg.

R Neo Flex Sensor. and Ad.
Sensors used with reusable adhesive tapes. They are comfortable for long-term studies, are durable and easy to clean.

8600M Oximeter
It has a good sized screen ensuring optimal vision. You can work 30hrs continuous with rechargeable batteries.

2120 Avant Oximeter
Oximeters is most advanced and complete. Besides the common functions of an oximeter, blood pressure monitors.

9600 Avant Oximeter
Volume consists of alarm and saturation, memory for 15 hours recording is digital, easy to use, programmable and versatile. It has a large monitor is compact, lightweight, has dater, volume control and mute alarms.

9700 Avant Oximeter
Digital Pulse Oximeter to monitor on a continuous or intermittent oxygen saturation and heart rate. Includes screen graphic pulse wave in color, the green means the pulse is strong, yellow moderate and red weak. You can connect a mini-printer online in real time for second-second print graphic or numeric report.

Neo Flex Tape D.
Disposable neonatal tape reusable flex sensors.

By developing the technology of ultrasound, microwave, laser and infrared light has succeeded in developing a wide range of medical devices that act through electromagnetic waves, sonic or physical. Most important is that these devices are available to any user, and you can get a good home oximeter for a small investment of 100 or 200, although some houses have as Quirumed cheaper models by just over 60 euros plus shipping shipment. In hospitals are classified as having a fixed oximeter plethysmographic curve but for private use or educational enough portable pulse oximeter, hand or finger. Nonin is one of the brands that specialize in pulse, you indicate both the oxygen values as the number of heartbeats per minute.

The normal values of oxygen in blood vary between 95% and 97% SaO2 so easily detected irregularities to be decreases below 95% saturation of O2. Go2 Nonin finger pulse oximeter is cheaper brand, you can buy for $ 99 in a few days pmedicalonline.net and start making the first tests with your own finger. It is designed to be used with fingers of size from millimeters to a centimeter and has 2 year warranty. Among the additions, plus a charger Go2 also have some support for adequate transportation, avoid losses and protect against falls, such as a bag, a briefcase and a simple string. There are several other notebook models Nonin 9500 Onyx from $ 200, and handheld pulse oximeters from $ 400 to $ 600 as the Nonin 2500 PalmSAT.

The main functions of this is patient care and monitoring the level of oxygen in cases of asthma there may be respiratory distress, cyanosis, control of oxygen therapy and the assessment of exercise tolerance. So that according to these functions can perform tests to see how exercise or changes in breathing may alter the level of oxygen in blood. You can also perform other experiences related to research projects specific to the Baccalaureate, to correlate the age with the amount of oxygen in the blood, or measure differences in this value between men and women.

In clinical practice are complementary to the gases, and are widely used in pediatrics to be the least invasive and most friendly to children. So a little ingenuity can be placed permanently if necessary, and notify you of any decrease in blood oxygen saturation. The main disadvantage of these devices is that regard, a gas analysis provides less information: do not measure the concentration of carbon dioxide, or the blood pH, and also for oxygen values are accurate only above 80-90%, so that are not useful for certain pathologies. As advantages we should mention its use simple and fast, in addition to its noninvasive application already discussed earlier.
