Finger pulse oximeter

A finger pulse oximeter measures a person’s blood oxygen saturation and pulse rate. They are widely used in the medical field and are also commonly used by pilots, athletes as well as people that work or train at high altitudes. A person’s entire body can be deprived of an adequate supply of oxygen, which is known as generalized hypoxia or simply a certain region of their body, commonly know as tissue hypoxia. This is a pathological condition that must be taken seriously and monitored. It is now easy and affordable to check your own heart rate and blood-oxygen saturation levels with a finger pulse oximeter.
