How to check Oxygen level without Oximeter?
Pulse oximeters typically use an infrared light source on one side and a sensor on the other to detect an oxygen saturation; a smartphone just uses white light (i.e. in the visible spectrum).
The app uses “reflective pulse oximetry,” which allows the light source and sensor (the camera in this case) to be next to each other.
And according to the paper, the app measures oxygen saturation “within 90–100% (version 2.0.4) with an accuracy of 0–4 RSM compared to a medical-grade pulse oximeter.” There is however no publicly available or published data supporting even that claim.
The app does include the usual disclaimer: “This app is for entertainment purposes only. The measured result can only be used for your reference. Consult a doctor if you have any health concerns.”
Normal pulse rate in Oximeter
A normal resting heart rate for adults ranges from 70 to 99 beats per minute. Generally, a lower heart rate at rest implies more efficient heart function and better cardiovascular fitness.
Portable Oxygen Concentrator continuous Flow
Instead of scheduling regular refills or replacements for tanks, a portable oxygen concentrator takes in ambient air and sends it through a filtration process to produce medical-grade quality oxygen.
What is PRBPM in Pulse Oximeter?
The term PRBPM refers to pulse rate (PR) and beats per minute (BPM) and the serious question is what PR and BPM mean on a pulse oximeter.
SaO2 meaning
SaO2 is oxygen saturation as measured by blood analysis (e.g. a blood gas) and SpO2 is oxygen saturation as measured by a pulse oximeter. What does this mean?
