Here is the procedure to use the pulse oxymeter to detect the body oxygen quantum:
When the coronavirus infection increases, the oxygen quantum in the body reduces leading to the possibility of death even!
Pulse Oxymeter is used to measure the body oxygen quantum in the body even within one’s residence! It is the oaf shape of a finger and quite small as such! Using it is quite easy as well!
Take your seat. Relax for 10 minutes. Now, take the body oxygen quantum by inserting the right-hand index finger in the pulse oxymeter.
In case more than 1 member in the family wishes to measure the oxygen quantum, each family member has to clean his/her finger with disinfectant and then only use the pulse oxymeter!
As soon as the right-hand index finger is inserted in the pulse oxymeter, 2 digits will start glowing in the meter! The quantity in the upper line indicates the oxygen quantum in the body. The number given in the lower line indicates the heart pulse rate!
After keeping the finger for a few seconds, take and note the shown oxygen quantum and the heart pulse rate!
In case the nails contain nail polish or henna, or if the finger is somewhat moist, it is likely to show a lower reading – please make note of this! It is normal if the oxygen quantum shown is between 95-100. If the meter shows less, then take the test again by inserting the left index finger in the pulse oxymeter! If the oxygen quantum is shown to be less than 94, take immediate medical help! For additional medical help, use the toll-free medical help number 104.
This pulse oxymeter is available in the nearest medical shops. The price is around Rs. 1800 and above!
Even as the whole country is reeling under the monstrous clutches of the resurgent coronavirus pandemic, it is indeed most advisable to keep a pulse oxymeter in one’s house!!
