Deluxe SM-110 Two Way Display Finger Pulse Oximeter with Carry Case and Neck/Wrist Cord

Lovely gadget great asset for work. Good clear reading loved by my nursing staff. A very good buy thank you.

we are a care home and the nurse wanted this to monitor our residents well-being - has been great at signalling issues and we have been able to give feedback to the hospital or paramedics already

This item is great for putting in your handbag as it is compact, even when in it's little pouch. It can also be worn around the neck if you're in a situation where you're likely to need to get to it more easily. It's easy to use & easy to understand (the numbers are not too small to read). It's the perfect size for someone who's into first aid or needs to carry this round on a more regular basis. It also has a little loop on the pouch so it can be put on a keyring or a narrow belt. I would recommend this product to anyone. A 9yr old could use & understand it if necessary.

This is just the sort of thing that is needed for those idiots who insist that they'r dying, stick it on their finger and tell em that it'll tell you all thats needed to know about any ailments. I found having one of these made people think I knew more than I did (it give a professional look for any first Aider). Big enough so you wont lose it but fits nicely on the belt, very simple and easy to use, good battery life as well as being importantly easy to keep clean. There are worse thing out on the market for far more money, so in my opinion this is a good buy for yourself or as a gift.

The accuracy of this product is amazing. The product itself is really well made and so easy to use. The carry case and cables are well made and handy to have.

A very good product. Easy to use and understand, works well. It is just like the one my doctor uses.

Great Oximeter nice clear readout of O2 levels and pulse rate. As a medical professional I highly recomend this instrument to anyone needing to check their O2 saturations

Works just as good as the hospital one. I had the opportunity to try both in hospital and the readings were the same.

This pulse oximeter is simple to use and gives quick readings. It fits comfortably on the finger and the display is clear and easy to read. Results appear within seconds, which is convenient for quick checks. The device feels well made and consistent with repeated use. Overall, it’s a straightforward, reliable oximeter that works as expected and is easy to keep on hand.

Yes. I've become a slight hypochondriac since Covid, and I originally bought this pulse oximeter to form part of my Covid first aid kit. It works really well and is actually accurate, considering the low cost. I am pleased to say my blood oxygen saturation is high, though so is my pulse...hmm. lol

My 81-year-old mother-in-law has several medical conditions, including COPD. When she has a problem breathing, it's helpful for her to know her oxygen saturation, so she knows if it's "merely" the COPD or she is having some other decline in lung function. Unfortunately she also has arthritic and perpetually cold hands, and has found that many pulse oximeters have LOTS of trouble getting a good reading on her fingers. I read through LOTS of the Amazon reviews for pulse oximeters, and any time someone said they were an EMT or a nurse AND they found that a particular unit was more likely to work in difficult situations, those items would go onto my wishlist. After awhile, this and one other moved to the top of the list to try. (I wasn't eager to have to order several before we found one that worked.) In the end I chose between two -- this one, the Santamedical SM-110, which I think must be an older model, and a seemingly newer model of the same brand Santamedical SM-240 OLED Finger Pulse Oximeter . (We have NOT ordered the SM-240.) My mother-in-law and I discussed the merits of the two and we decided to try this older, less expensive one. It arrived VERY quickly, came with a nylon case, two lanyards and AAA batteries so it was immediately usable. The box and instructions contain some amusingly strange translated English (from Chinese, maybe?) but there wasn't any huge problem understanding how to use it. My mother-in-law seems happy with it; she hasn't had any trouble getting it to read, though she does have to warm her hand and switch among different fingers, just like with the ones at her physical therapists' and doctors' offices. This SM-110 has an "old fashioned" red LED display, which I imagine might be hard to read in bright sunlight. The Sp02 reading is near one end, and the pulse is near the other end, and all the digits are quite read-ably large. When you are getting a successful measurement, the reading comes up really quickly (just a few seconds), though when it's NOT being successful, the "bar graph" next to the digits doesn't move much. I presume as my mother-in-law gains experience using it, the pulsations of the bar graph will help her position the unit for the steadiest readings. One annoyance of the design is that if her hand is flat in front of her the numbers are "upside down" to her when she is wearing it. Obviously whoever designed it imagined a caregiver using it on other people, not using it on themselves. (I believe the SM-240 addresses that issue by having the display rotated 90 degrees, so you can more easily read it merely by rotating your hand toward yourself.) While she has only had it for a week, my mother-in-law seems satisfied, so we're not going to bother ordering the SM-240. I presume if the newer model works similarly to this one it should be a good risk, too, but this SM-110 was certainly a bargain and works well. There ARE a few even less expensive pulse oximeters on Amazon and other sites, but none of the others has as consistently a high rating here as the Santamedical SM-110 and SM-240 do.

The product works well, though sometimes it's a little hit and miss with recognising finger placement for reading o2 saturation. The finger position on the device needs to be carefully positioned for it to read properly. It's something that just takes a little getting used to. I would not hesitate to recommend this product.

A good pulse Oximeter can literally mean the difference between life and death! I have thoroughly tested the Santa Medical Pulse Oximeter while using medical grade oxygen and below I will share my thoughts. Let me start by saying that everyone should have one these...not just people with breathing issues. Have you ever noticed that your pulse and oxygen level are the first things checked at the doctor along with your temperature and blood pressure? That's because knowing your pulse and oxygen level can point the doctor in the right direction, much in the same way that having an Oximeter at home can show you the same important info when you aren't at the doctor. I use my Oximeter to check my oxygen level so I know if I need to raise or lower the oxygen level on my oxygen tanks. Sometimes my oxygen level can change drastically out of nowhere just by walking around or sometime by sitting to long. Sadly, my body usually doesn't give me warning signs that my oxygen level is running low until it is too late and I am close to passing out. That level for me, is usually when the Oximeter goes down to about 88.When I see that number, or even sometimes a number around 90, I know that I need to put my oxygen cannula in my nose and start inhaling oxygen immediately. If I don't start oxygen, then I will most likely pass out. Once I start oxygen with the Oximeter on my index finger, I can watch my oxygen level increase to around 95, and then after a few hours of oxygen it will go up to around 97 on the meter. This Santa Medical Oximeter is very accurate on its oxygen level readings. I have compared it to my old Oximeter from 2009 and they usually show the same reading. Occasionally the number will vary by plus or minus one number but they show the same number a few seconds later. The Santa Medical Oximeter can be used on any finger to obtain a reading but I feel it is MOST accurate when placed on the index finger, and when the index finger is fully inserted and touching the rubber piece that can be felt inside of the meter.. Please note that the rubber piece slightly lifts the fingernail when the finger is inserted. So, you may also be wondering why I purchased a second Oximeter 11 years later, and what the differences were between the two. Well, as I said before, my first pulse Oximeter is from 2011, and it is now 2020. Both puse Oximeters look identical! Boy do I love the new one more though! The new device is 3 times brighter, and that is such a blessing as my eye sight declines. The new device also has the option to press the button (there's only one button) after the device is on and it flips the readout so that the screen isn't upside down if your finger is facing a different direction. Allow me to explain this further with this next two sentences. My old Oximeter required that you lift your hand up and turn your fingers toward your face in order to read the results. The new Oximeter allows you to leave your hand at rest on your lap, and still allows you to read the results without the results being upside down. The last big difference between the two Oximeters is that the new one comes with a velcro case and a lanyard. That may not seem like a big deal now, but these meters are tiny and easy to loose. Having the case not only makes it easier to spot during a "panicky" situation when oxygen levels may be low, but also makes it easier to carry. Prior to having the case, I alway shoved my old meter in my pocket and I was always worried about it getting broken or covered in lint. No more worrying about that with the new case. Lastly I want to just tell you how simple this is to use. Push the one and only button one time and put the meter on your index finger. Within 7 seconds you will have your oxygen saturation and your pulse! Push the button one more time if you want to "flip" the LCD screen. That's it, that's how you use it. I've even used it my with wet fingers and still obtained an accurate reading. PROS: • Accurate readings within 7 seconds. • Comes with case. • Extremely bright! • Obtains readings even when fingers are wet. • Screen orientation can be flipped. • Simple, one button operation. CONS: NONE. To sum up this review, I do not regret my purchase of the Santa Medical Pulse Oximeter one single bit. I probably could have gotten a few more years out of my older 11 year old Oximeter, but with the improvements that have been made to the new meter, I am glad that I purchased a second one. The Santa Medical Pulse Oximeter is a 5 star product and I definitely recommend it! I have also included pictures and a video in my review.
