Pulse Oximeter Devices That Are Specifically Made For Pediatric Children
The health of your children is one of the most important things in your life and
takes priority on almost everything else that you hold dear in your life. Many children are afflicted with health illnesses that require the parents to monitor the pulse rate and oxygen levels of their children at all times. One of these illnesses happens to be asthma. Asthma is one of the most common health conditions among children. It is a very difficult health condition to live with as children truly like to be active and move around, but because of their physical activities this make actually cause them to not get enough oxygen and experience an asthma attack. Parents may at times really watch in agony to see that their children are experiencing an asthma attack and not getting enough oxygen in their body as they grasp for air. There really was no medical or health device in the past that was used in order to monitor the oxygen levels of children. The need was for a device that provided on-spot oxygen check monitoring and allowed for the parents to utilize the device on their children wherever they are in order to monitor the oxygen levels of their child. The answer to this dilemma actually came in the shape of a portable pulse oximeter.A pulse oximeter is a medical and health device that is extremely useful in the health care field. The device is made to measure not only the pulse rate of an individual but also the oxygen levels. By simply inserting your finger inside the small portable device you would get an instant reading of your oxygen levels within seconds. In addition, because the device is portable you can easily take it wherever you decide to go. However, there was a further need for a pulse oximeter device that not only was portable with the same level of accuracy as the previous generations, but also for a device that could be used by children. Children by nature have smaller anatomical features and as such their fingers are significantly smaller than adults. As the oximeter device relies on measuring the oxygen levels from the individual inserting their finger inside the device it is of critical importance that there be a snug and tight fit around the finger in order to provide the most accurate readings. This dilemma was actually solved by the introduction of a pediatric pulse oximeter. A pediatric pulse oximeter is just as accurate as other versions of the health device however it is specifically manufactured with the children in mind. The section where the child inserts his or her finger is actually made to be significantly smaller and able to provide a snug fit for the child thus producing more accurate readings of pulse rate as well as oxygen levels. So parents can now take the device with them wherever they decide to go and use the device in order to measure the pulse rate and the oxygen levels of their children in order to prevent any health complications that may occur should they not closely monitor their childrens health.
