At present, there are four kinds of oximeters on the market, namely: finger clip oximeter, palm oximeter, pulse oximeter and watch oximeter. Although these four types are different, they have their own advantages and disadvantages, so everyone should choose the right oximeter according to their own situation when buying.
What's the best oximeter?
Theoretically, pulse oximeter and finger oximeter are better. Pulse oximeter adopts the principle of oxygen saturation, which is safe, noninvasive, convenient and accurate. These four aspects are the four aspects that patients are most concerned about. At present, pulse oximeter has been widely used in many fields. Due to the technical breakthrough, the interference factors such as light interference, noise interference and low perfusion in the past are very small, so the results obtained are relatively accurate and recognized by major institutions and authoritative departments.
Suitable crowd for oximeter
Who needs an oximeter? Who is the oximeter suitable for? The following six types of people are suitable for using oximeter.
1, people with vascular diseases (coronary heart disease, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, cerebral thrombosis, etc. )
There is lipid deposition in the vascular cavity, and the blood is not smooth, which will lead to difficulty in oxygen supply. Using an oximeter can easily check the blood oxygen of the human body.
2. Patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases
Viscous blood, combined with coronary atherosclerosis and stenosis of vascular lumen, leads to poor blood supply and difficult oxygen supply. The body is "anoxic" every day. Long-term mild hypoxia, excessive oxygen consumption of the heart, brain and other organ functions will gradually decline. Therefore, long-term detection of blood oxygen content in patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases by pulse oximeter can effectively prevent the occurrence of danger. If there is hypoxia, the decision to replenish oxygen at the first time can effectively reduce the chance of disease attack.
3. People with respiratory diseases (asthma, bronchitis, chronic bronchitis, pulmonary heart disease, etc.). )
It is really important to detect the blood oxygen of patients with respiratory system. On the one hand, breathing difficulties will lead to insufficient oxygen intake. On the other hand, the persistence of asthma will block tiny branches, make gas exchange difficult, lead to hypoxia, and cause different degrees of damage to the heart, lungs, brain and even kidneys. Therefore, detecting blood oxygen content with pulse oximeter can reduce the incidence of respiratory tract.
Older people over 4.60 years old
The human body relies on blood to deliver oxygen. When there is less blood, there is naturally less oxygen. With less oxygen, the physical condition naturally declines, so the elderly should use pulse oximeter to detect the blood oxygen content every day. Once the blood oxygen is lower than the warning level, it should be supplemented as soon as possible.
5. People who work more than 12 hours a day.
Brain oxygen consumption accounts for 20% of the whole body oxygen intake. With the transition of mental work, the oxygen consumption of the brain will inevitably rise. However, the human body can take in limited oxygen, so it takes in more and takes in less. In addition to causing dizziness, fatigue, poor memory, slow response and other problems, it will also cause serious damage to the brain and myocardium, and even death from overwork. Therefore, people who study or work for 65,438+02 hours every day must use pulse oximeter to detect blood oxygen content every day, and monitor blood oxygen health from time to time to ensure the health of heart and brain.
6, sports, fitness crowd
Real-time blood oxygen monitoring of athletes is helpful to understand the blood circulation of athletes after heavy exercise, thus guiding the formulation of athletes' exercise amount. Passengers entering Tibet by train on the Qinghai-Tibet Railway need to be tested for blood oxygen. Through the monitoring of blood oxygen, we can find out the problem of blood carrying oxygen or supplying oxygen in advance, and avoid the harm of cyanosis caused by mountain reflex to the body.
