The Wellion PULSE-OXIMETER is used to measure oxygen saturation and pulse rate through the finger, so that an oxygen deficiency can be detected at an early stage. In addition, the perfusion index is displayed. Optimal for people with respiratory diseases, heart failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, covid-19 and bronchial asthma. The Wellion pulse oximeter is small and light and can therefore be used in the family environment, health care as well as on the road, during activities at high altitudes (up to approx. 3000 m above sea level / 700 hPa), in sports medicine.
Oxygen saturation indicates what percentage of the total haemoglobin Hb in the blood is enriched with oxygen. In healthy people, oxygen saturation is in the range of ≥ 94%. Many factors can lower the oxygen saturation in human blood and lead to problems in oxygen supply:
As a result, patients may experience symptoms such as migraine, nausea and loss of strength. Therefore, it is very important to know the oxygen saturation in time.
The perfusion index shows the blood flow value of your finger.
The product is not suitable for continuous monitoring of parameters. It can be used before or after exercise - it is not recommended during exercise. The measurement results can be influenced by external dyes (such as nail polish, coloured skin care products, etc.).
