Momo
Very happy with this.
I bought this for a relative who had recently been in hospital with a chest infection. It was accurate and great for putting our minds at rest that their O2 sats were within normal range.

helps me keep an eye on oxygen levels
It's great. It helps me keep an eye on my oxygen levels with my COPD
Craig, 45 - 54, Scotland
Works well but need warm fingers
We bought this to replace a Boots oximeter which was becoming unreliable. This one has a brilliant clear display and the change of display orientation is useful. Gives readings that are consistent with readings by medical professionals. Your finger needs to pushed all the way in and it doesn't like cold fingers. Generally, pretty good for a home monitor.

Good quality stuff but stop with the insurance
Argos stuff is reasonable quality and reasonably priced but the insurance sales is ridiculous and annoying
Deano, 55 - 64, Wick
Excellent, fast and really clear
I bought this a couple of weeks ago after an asthma attack. Helps me keep an eye on my oxygen levels.

Hello Derek,
The oximeter's measurement range is 30 to 254 BPM.
As noted in the manual, several factors can affect readings, such as nail polish, cold hands, swollen fingers, or certain medical conditions.
For a quick check, please try testing on a different finger or, for a more reliable comparison, on another person. If the issue continues, our Customer Support team is happy to assist you directly at Braun_Support@helenoftroy.eu.

Hello Mandy, thank you for your interest in our product. The Braun Fingertip Pulse Oximeter 1 does not bleep when giving your readings while they are within the norm. It has a beeping feature that alerts users when oxygen saturation or pulse rate readings are outside of the normal range. If any additional information about the product is required, please do not hesitate to approach us at Braun_Support@helenoftroy.eu

Hello Becky! Thanks for reaching out!
The Braun YK-81CEU Fingertip Pulse Oximeter is labeled as suitable for adults aged 18 and over. This age restriction is likely due to the device's calibration and design, which are optimized for adult finger sizes and physiological parameters. Using it on children could result in inaccurate readings due to differences in finger size, skin thickness, and circulation.
If you're looking for a pulse oximeter for a child, it's best to consult a healthcare provider.
We hope this information is helpful. If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at Braun_Support@helenoftroy.eu.

Hi! The Braun YK-81CEU Fingertip Pulse Oximeter is a small and portable device that can be used to check oxygen levels and pulse rate in the fingertip. To get accurate readings, it is recommended that you keep your finger still during measurements. It's best not to use it while you're walking or running, as the movement can make the readings inaccurate.
We hope this information helps. If you have more questions or need more information, please contact us at Braun_Support@helenoftroy.eu.
Best regards,Braun Healthcare

Hello, Jayne! Thank you for your question. The Braun YK-81CEU Fingertip Pulse Oximeter 1 measures pulse rate and pulse amplitude in addition to oxygen saturation (%SpO2). The pulse rate is the number of contractions of the blood vessels as a result of the heart pumping blood in a minute, while the heart rate is the number of times a heart beats in a minute. If your doctor advised you to follow both closely, we recommend seeking their advice for the best solution. We hope this reply will prove helpful. If you need any additional information about the oximeter, don't hesitate to send us an email at Braun_Support@helenoftroy.eu.

Hi Absieb,
The Braun YK-81CEU Fingertip Pulse Oximeter 1 does not connect to a phone. Any previous readings would need to be recorded manually as they are not saved on the device.
