Pulse Oximeter Price in Kenya: Fingertip and Handheld Oximeters

A pulse oximeter clips on a finger and reads oxygen saturation and pulse in a few seconds. Families caring for someone with a chest condition keep one at home. Clinics use one at triage for every patient. Here is what they cost and which one to buy.

Fingertip or handheld?

A fingertip oximeter is enough for home use and for spot checks at triage. It runs on two AAA batteries and fits in a pocket. A handheld oximeter has a separate probe, so it works on small children and on patients who move and it keeps a trace on screen for longer checks. Ambulances and emergency rooms buy handheld units.

What is a normal reading?

Most healthy adults read 95 to 100 percent. A reading under 92 percent on a resting patient needs a clinician. Cold fingers, nail polish and movement give false low readings, so warm the hand and hold still for a few seconds before trusting the number.
