This Pediatric Finger Pulse oximeter is designed from the ground up with children in mind. They are specially designed to detect both the pulse rate and blood oxygen saturation level (SpO2).
It is made with a smaller foot print along with a new software algorithm and sensor that are specifically made with the physical parameters for children. The sensor is calibrated to the thinner skin surface of children, whose skin could be as little as 0.3 inches (8mm). The oximeter opening where one would insert the finger is also specifically miniaturized for pediatric care and pediatric nursing. This helps prevent ambient light from entering the orifice that could cause inaccuracies in the reading. This product is recommended for use on children ages 2 to 13, with a minimum body weight of 33 lbs, or 15kg. The bright OLED display allows for six separate display modes, suitable for viewing from multiple angles. The display orientation can also be changed to help the person better see the oximetry reading.
The most innovative feature in this product is its built-in heartbeat tracker. This auditory blip helps keep track of the heart as its beating without having to look at the display visually. An auditory alarm is also included that would detect when the heartrate or SpO2 exceeds a preset specification.
