Alex Grichuhin RRT-RCP, dives into the world of pulse oximeters, unraveling the truth about their functionality and shedding light on their limitations. Join us as we explore the purpose of pulse oximeters and their actual role in tracking health metrics.
With clear explanations and expert insights, we clarify that pulse oximeters are primarily designed to measure heart rate and oxygen saturation levels in the blood. Contrary to common misconceptions, these devices provide a reliable pulse reading but do not provide a direct measurement of oxygen levels.
Through detailed demonstrations, we guide you on the correct usage of pulse oximeters and help you interpret the data they provide. Discover the significance of understanding the distinction between heart rate and oxygen saturation, empowering you to make informed decisions about your health.
Join us in this video as we uncover the truth about pulse oximeters, equipping you with the knowledge to use them effectively as a tool to monitor heart rate and gain a basic understanding of oxygen saturation trends. Stay informed, and stay empowered!
