HOW DOES A PULSE OXIMETER WORK?

Pulse oximetry is non-invasive and painless. The small digital device is clipped onto the fingertip and covers the front and back of the fingertip. When activated, the fingertip pulse oximeter emits a light that passes through the fingernail, skin, blood, and tissue and acts as an oxygen tester.

On the other side of the finger, a sensor in the pulse oximeter detects and measures the amount of light passing through the finger without getting absorbed by the blood and tissue. With this measurement, the pulse oximeter device calculates the blood oxygen saturation.

WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO KNOW WHAT THE OXYGEN SATURATION OF MY LUNGS IS WITH AN OXYGEN TESTER?

Our organs need a constant supply of oxygen to work properly. When we breathe, our lungs transmit oxygen into our capillaries. These capillaries send oxygen-rich blood to the heart. The heart then pumps it through the rest of the body via arteries, including the organs.

When the lungs struggle to transport oxygen into the blood, blood oxygen saturation declines. It negatively impacts our organs. If the pulse oximeter detects a drop in oxygen saturation, medical intervention might be needed.
