A pulse oximeter measures oxygen saturation (SpO₂) and pulse rate. Oxygen saturation indicates how much oxygen your blood carries. Normal levels for most healthy individuals are typically between 95% and 100%.
Low oxygen levels may cause symptoms such as shortness of breath, fatigue, or dizziness and should be evaluated by a healthcare professional.
Using a fingertip oximeter is easy. Place your finger inside the device and remain still for a few seconds until the reading stabilizes. Cold hands, nail polish, or movement can affect accuracy, so ensure proper conditions before measuring.
Pulse oximeters are useful for people with respiratory conditions, athletes, or anyone monitoring their health at home. However, readings should always be interpreted in context with symptoms and medical advice.
