SPO 6100 Hand Held Pulse Oximeter $249 PulseOx 6100

SPO 6100 Hand Held Pulse Oximeter

SPO Medical 6100 Pulse Oximeter

The SPO Medical PulseOx 6100 hand-held pulse oximeter is ideally suited for medical professionals. Based on SPO Medical's proprietary patented algorithms, the SPO 6100 uses reflective pulse oximetry for accurate and reliable measurements of blood oxygen saturation and heart rate.

With AutoSpot technology, these algorithms also remove sensitivity to motion artifacts and low profusion typically experienced by other hand-held oximeters.

The SPO 6100 pulse oximeter for only $249 is the most cost competitive hand-held unit in the market!

SPO 6100 now comes with a Two Year Warranty (1 year Warranty on Sensor)!!!

SPO 6100 Hand-Held Pulse Oximeter Includes:

• SPO 6100 Hand-Held Oximeter with Adult Sensor (45 pounds and up)

• Users Manual

The SPO 6100 is simple to use. Just slip your finger into the universal size thimble and within seconds the SPO PulseOx 6100 automatically displays readings of your heart rate and SpO2. the illuminated LCD panel makes it easy to read for medical professionals.

SPO Medical has designed and manufactured its products to be environmentally friendly by minimizing the operating power consumption requirements by at least a factor of (10) hence greatly reducing the need to frequently replace the batteries.

The SPO 6100 pulse oximeter features AutoSpot technology that varies the light intensity as a function of low perfusion i.e. patients who typically have difficulty in getting readings. AutoSpot will obtain a reading by increasing the light intensity in patients with low perfusion or when using the oximeter during mild motion.

SPO Medical Pulse Oximeter Technology

What is Pulse Oximetry?
Pulse oximetry is a very important non-invasive process used to measure blood oxygen saturation levels (SpO2) by monitoring the percentage of hemoglobin (Hb), which is saturated with oxygen as well as measuring heart rate. This procedure has been used regularly in hospitals during the past twenty years and is established as an essential measurement in medical practice, to ensure maintenance of adequate oxygen and prevention of respiratory difficulty. In many disease states, oxygen saturation is one of the most important vital signs to monitor.

Transmission Pulse Oximetry
There are two methods to measure pulse oximetry: by transmission through a body part or by reflection. In general, the transmission method can only be used on limited areas of the body, such as fingers, earlobes, etc. Furthermore, in some instances when the transmission method is used, physiological conditions such as stress and temperature can affect the accuracy of pulse oximetry readings.

The Power Challenge
Because pulse oximetry measurements taken on-site in an emergency, at local medical practices, and/or in home care, can save lives and curtail intervention costs, mobile units have been developed. However, they have not been incorporated into the mainstream because their power requirements often make them impractical. In addition, the technical complexities involved when a patient cannot be absolutely stationary have produced unreliable results, since pulse oximetry measurement traditionally have been less accurate during movement.

SPO Medical's Reflectance Technique and Low-Power Advantage
Responding to the need for life-saving information in the field where people cannot be absolutely stationary, SPO Medical developed patented sensors that work accurately during physical activity. This technique uses a reflectance method whereby a very small sensor placed on the body at various locations has the ability to measure oxygen saturation and heart pulse rate. Typical motion artifacts have been compensated for within the system algorithms.

SPO Medical has patented technology that uses the reflectance technique and incorporates it into portable devices that are as reliable as a thermometer or blood pressure cuff. Moreover, these devices operate at a power requirement approximately 1/100th of that compared to commercially available systems. This puts pulse oximetry into the hands medical practitioners and emergency personnel on-site for the safety and benefit of all, and offers the opportunity to create new commercial and consumer applications.
