With the Beurer PO 80 pulse oximeter, you easily measure the amount of oxygen in the blood (SpO2) and heart rate. Oxygen saturation tells how many percent of the arterial blood's hemoglobin has bound oxygen to itself. It is an important parameter in the assessment of respiratory functions. The Beurer PO80 is a modern pulse oximeter with versatile functions. What makes the PO80 pulse oximeter special is that the device records the measurement result for up to 24 hours. It is possible to transfer the results to a computer. For longer measurements, the finger should be changed every two hours. The device has a convenient rechargeable battery.
Purpose of use: A pulse oximeter is suitable, for example, for people suffering from respiratory disease, asthma or heart failure PO80 is particularly suitable for sleep apnea patients, as the oximeter can be used to record the oxygen saturation during the night, the calculation of which is part of the symptoms of sleep apnea. Also useful for athletes in high conditions (e.g. mountain climbers and skiers). Chronically low oxygen saturation should be monitored with a pulse oximeter according to the doctor's instructions. Symptoms of low oxygen saturation: shortness of breath, increased heart rate, reduced performance, nervousness, sweating
