Blood oxygen levels are vital and give so much information about a person's health that on first arrival at the hospital or ER, one of the very first things done to the patient by the nurse is to clip a pulse oximeter on the finger to get an instant reading of the oxygen levels and the pulse of the patient.  Maintaining a healthy blood oxygen level is one of the most vital ways the body keeps itself in tip top working order. Muscles and cells depend on oxygen to function properly. When oxygen levels fall below normal it is a sign there is a problem, and time to see your doctor to find out what is going on in your body. There are many reasons the body may be experiencing low oxygen levels and knowing this information quickly, for you and for your healthcare provider, could stave off a serious situation. Rehabmart offers the best in superior quality pulse oximeter devices for the individual user, health care or homecare environments.
