Overview

The document provides technical information about a Fingertip Pulse Oximeter, a medical device used to measure blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) and pulse rate non-invasively.

Main Sections

1. Specifications

• Measurement Parameters: Blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) and pulse rate.
• Measurement Range: Typically SpO2 from 70% to 100%, pulse rate from 30 to 250 beats per minute.
• Accuracy: SpO2 accuracy usually ±2% in the 70%-100% range; pulse rate accuracy ±2 beats per minute or ±2%.
• Display: OLED or LED screen showing SpO2, pulse rate, and pulse waveform or bar graph.
• Power Supply: Battery operated, often using AAA batteries.

2. Operating Procedures

• Place the device on the fingertip ensuring proper fit.
• Turn on the device; wait for stable readings.
• Read SpO2 and pulse rate values on the display.
• Remove device after measurement.

3. Standards and Compliance

• Compliance with medical device standards such as ISO 80601-2-61 for pulse oximeters.
• Electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility standards.

4. Recommendations and Best Practices

• Ensure finger is clean and warm for accurate readings.
• Minimize movement during measurement to avoid artifacts.
• Use in appropriate ambient light conditions to prevent interference.
• Regularly check battery status to ensure device reliability.

5. Limitations

• Accuracy may be affected by poor circulation, nail polish, or skin pigmentation.
• Not a substitute for professional medical diagnosis.

Summary of Key Data

The device provides quick, non-invasive monitoring of oxygen saturation and pulse rate with reasonable accuracy within specified ranges. Proper usage and adherence to guidelines are critical for reliable results.
