Frequently asked questions

Do expensive oximeters read more accurately?
Accuracy depends more on a stable fit and good circulation than on price. Certified devices from established makers tend to perform consistently. Very cheap units sometimes drift after a few months.
Can I use a fingertip oximeter on children?
Only if the device and sensor are sized for children; adult clips can give poor readings on small fingers. Some models offer a paediatric probe or setting.
What affects the reading besides oxygen?
Cold hands, nail polish, motion and bright light can all skew a reading. Warm your hand and hold still before trusting the number.
