The Advantages Of The CMS Pulse Oximeters

By Luisa Sharpe


The Pulse oximeters are mostly found in clinics. They are the apparatus used to tell the extent of oxygen levels in the blood. It ensures that the system of your body has the suitable levels. This is through comparison of the standard levels of 95 to 98 percent in an average person who is not having any complications of the pulmonary system. These CMS pulse oximeters are normally put on the finger or a narrow part of your body.

This equipment is used because it does not intrude on the way the body works. When compared to withdrawing blood from the body to do tastes on the amount of O2 and hemoglobin, it is better. If a person is to be tested after a few hours, the method of drawing blood becomes inconvenient. Taking blood from a patient within short intervals is not recommended.

This piece may be fixed to the monitor that is multi parameter and connected to a screen. This gives details read from a distance. The different parts are attached to the patient body with the other used to read details screened on a huge monitor. If a patient is in critical condition, it has to remain attached in the body so that it can alert doctors when they develop breathing problems.

Though an oximeter is able to measure the amount of oxygen in the human blood, it cannot be used to determine whether the patient is using up this oxygen. In order to to use this this device for this purpose, it has to be connected to other laboratory instrument to indicate this. Patients undergoing surgery are normally monitored using this kind of system as they have very unstable oxygen supply, and using this device will ensure that they are getting enough supply.

People who have COPD and sleep disorders like apnea and hypopnea are closely monitored using this instrument. This is because they may start hyper or hypo ventilating, and this may not be sensed easily if they are in critical condition. The oximeter is a must have in emergency medicine because it does in seconds what would take hours to be determined.

For pilots flying planes in high altitudes above 10,000ft, they need this machine because they require supplemental O2. When used, it indicates when to use the supplemental oxygen because they lack normal supply. This helps to make drastic emergency measures and avoid accidents. To many people, this can be used to save peoples live and prevent accidents. If you use CMS machine, you are able to get information for many hours since it consumes less power and you can use it for over 30 hours.

The device fits a very wide range of sizes of peoples fingers, be it kids or grown-ups. It is important to know that it has been approved by the Health Canada and FDA, to be used in all medical emergencies. The seven section bar graph provides a perfect protection against the ambient light because you will see the readings clearly.

The CMS pulse Oximeter comes with lightweight digital display that use LED light. This is comfortable for patients to wear. It uses little power and indicates when power shuts. This helps one to continue using it until it shuts off.
