Portland, OR -- (SBWire) -- 05/31/2018 --For people with COPD, asthma, Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) and other conditions, pulse oximetry is a technology used to measure the oxygen level in your blood and your heart rate. A finger pulse oximeter is equipped with technology to rapidly detect changes in your blood oxygen level.
A finger pulse oximeter functions by shining light through your finger. The sensors detect how much oxygen is in your blood based on the way the light passes through your finger. Pulse oximetry is the technology calculating the results to display a number on the oximeter's screen that tells you the percent of oxygen in your blood. A finger pulse oximeter also measures your pulse rate.
The demand for pulse oximeters is expected to increase in the near future, owing to efficient diagnosis of critical health conditions and ability to track the health status of patients in home settings. Rise in geriatric population and chronic health conditions such as, COPD and obesity, increase in preference for home monitoring, and growth in awareness among patients about smart pulse oximeters are expected to drive the market growth. However, lack of awareness and adoption of these devices in low- and middle-income economies are projected to hamper the market growth.
