A Fingertip Pulse Oximeter is a medical equipment device that measures heart rate and blood-oxygen saturation in a matter of seconds by simply inserting the patient's finger into the device, which produces a reading shortly thereafter. Heart rate (pulse) and blood-oxygen saturation are a standard component of any physical examination including but not limited to the recording of a patient's vital signs.

The MedSource brand Fingertip Pulse-Oximeter (http://www.eganmedical.com/Fingertip-Pulse-Oximeter-p/msme-74000.htm) features a single-color LED display, and is used to measure human hemoglobin saturation and heart rate through the finger.
