Pulse Oximeters Including Nonin For Fingertip Oximetry Part Three

Dec. 1, 2010 - PRLog -- Pulse oximeters are supplied by Medical Pulse Oximeter LLC including the Nonin oximeter brand plus a variety of finger oximeters and fingertip oximeters used for pulse oximetry by people who monitor the oxygenation levels of the haemoglobin in their blood.

"As a result of therapists, doctors and specialists using pulse oximeters to determine the reduction in oxygen levels of patients while they are sleeping, certain breathing aids and or apparatus such as a BiPAP or C-PAP can be recommended and used by patients to help them breath more efficiently and therefore place more oxygen into their bodies. A BiPAP, according to the definition given by wisegeek.com is, quote ‘BiPAP stands for Bi-level Positive Airway Pressure. It is a breathing apparatus that helps people get more air into their lungs. Created in the nineteen nineties, it developed out of the C-PAP, which stands for Continuous Positive Airway Pressure. In the nineteen eighties, people used C-PAPs to help combat breathing difficulties such as sleep apnea’. This type of breathing apparatus has been of great benefit to people who suffer from oxygen deficiency".

"According to wisegeek.com their definition of a C-PAP is as follows, quote ‘Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) refers to a medical device used primarily for the treatment of sleep apnea, although it may also be employed to transition patients in hospitals from breathing tubes, or intubation, to regulate their breathing. Those with chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder or other breathing disorders may also use a CPAP at night’. Many people do not know and therefore need to be educated as to how pulse oximetry works. A pulse oximeter uses a shaft of light that has been sent through a specific area of the human body, which is usually the finger or fingertip, hence the nomenclature of finger oximeter and fingertip oximeter. This ray of light can also be sent through toes or earlobes when people are suffering with circulatory disorders and diseases".

"What then happens is that the beam of light sent or created by the pulse oximeter uses the colour of the blood to assess the level of oxygen that is present in the blood. The colour of the blood is analysed because it will change a little if the red blood cells in the person’s blood stream are sufficiently oxygenated. Blood that has received the correct amount of oxygen on a continuous basis is usually red in colour. This oxygenated blood will soak up most of the light generated by or through the pulse oximeter, irrespective of whether it is a finger pulse oximeter or fingertip pulse oximeter or not. Blood that does not receive enough oxygen usually becomes or reflects a dark red to purple colour and this type of blood will not absorb the light coming from the pulse oximeter".
