Buy a pulse oximeter: You will find what you are looking for at medisana
High-quality medical devices can be used to measure many important parameters quickly and reliably. One of these parameters is the oxygen saturation of human blood. This refers to the proportion of haemoglobin in the blood that is loaded with oxygen. In the past, such a measurement was only possible by analysing the blood gas in a blood sample. Nowadays, however, oxygen saturation can be easily determined using a pulse oximeter. You can order these pulse oximeters conveniently from medisana. Incidentally, you can use a pulse oximeter to measure not only oxygen saturation, but also heart rate. The small and modern pulse oximeters are easy to place on a finger and read the heart rate and oxygen saturation from the display within a few seconds.
Areas of application and benefits of pulse oximeters
For health reasons, the use of a pulse oximeter is recommended for heart or lung diseases. It can be used to quickly check whether the heart rate and oxygen saturation are within an appropriate range. As a pulse oximeter can be used completely painlessly and non-invasively, a quick measurement is possible at any time. The small devices also fit in any handbag or trouser pocket. They can therefore be used outside the home without any problems. However, a pulse oximeter is also useful in other areas.
By simultaneously measuring the heart rate, a pulse oximeter is also a useful companion for endurance sports and supports the logging of training sessions. The PM 100 connect pulse oximeter from medisana even allows the data obtained to be exported via Bluetooth. Measurement results can thus be made available to doctors or used to optimise training sessions.
High-quality workmanship and stylish design simplify handling
medisana attaches great importance to the quality of its products. Medical devices such as a pulse oximeter therefore primarily provide reliable and correct measurement results. However, correct measurement results do not exclude high-quality workmanship, stylish design and ease of use. Our pulse oximeters therefore have small but high-contrast displays that clearly show the measurement results. Our pulse oximeters are also switched on and ready to measure in just a few seconds. Heart rate and oxygen saturation are displayed after around ten to 15 seconds.
Depending on the intended use, you can now put the pulse oximeter to one side again. Alternatively, you can continue the measurement over a longer period of time. During training, for example, you can easily track how your heart rate changes during exercise and rest phases.
Oxygen saturation varies
In sick users, oxygen saturation is often below the typical normal value. This is 94 % or more and can be up to 100 %. The attending physician will always advise on appropriate values. However, short-term fluctuations are quite normal. During longer-term stays at high altitudes, oxygen saturation can fall below the standard value even in healthy people. In professional mountaineers, for example, values of less than 70 % have been observed, which would be highly critical under normal circumstances. When using pulse oximeters, it is therefore important to know your individual state of health and to be aware of the significance of the measurement results. You can buy the right pulse oximeter conveniently online from medisana.
