Omron Pulse Oximeter HPO-300T

Omron Healthcare will sell the "Omron Pulse Oximeter HPO-300T", which can be linked to smartphones via Bluetooth, for medical professionals from April 26. The price is an open price, and the estimated price is about 30,000 yen.

A medical device that measures SpO2 (percutaneous arterial oxygen saturation) and pulse rate by shining light on a fingertip. SpO2 is also used as an index to determine the severity of the new coronavirus infection. Equipped with a Bluetooth communication function, measurement data can be managed with a smartphone application.

Measurement of SpO2 and pulse rate

Oxygen taken in from the lungs binds to hemoglobin contained in red blood cells and is transported throughout the body. SpO2 is a value obtained by measuring the ratio of hemoglobin bound to oxygen among the hemoglobin in red blood cells flowing through the arteries through the skin. The normal SpO2 value for a healthy person is 96-99%, and decreases when respiratory diseases such as asthma and COPD prevent normal oxygen uptake. Respiratory failure is suspected when SpO2 is below 90%. In addition, it is not possible to judge the infection of the new coronavirus based only on the values ​​of the pulse oximeter.

Omron, Pulse can manage data with app Oximeter for medical staff

Equipped with Bluetooth Low Energy and linked with the company's smartphone application "OMRON connect". SpO2 and pulse rate data are automatically transferred by pairing the main unit with a smartphone and activating the app at the time of measurement. Measured values ​​can be checked in a list by "day/week/month/year", and graph display is supported. The measured data can be output to a CSV file and easily shared with doctors. In addition, the pulse oximeter has a memory function for 30 times, so even if you forget to transfer data, you can send it all at once.

It is also possible to display a graph that allows you to check the measurement data on the app

The pulse oximeter emits LED light from the pad side of the finger, and the sensor on the nail side detects the degree of redness of the blood, so it is possible to measure If the light (disturbance light) hits the sensor, it may cause an error in the measurement. This device adopts a design that covers the sides of the device when attached, reducing the effects of ambient light.

The display of the main unit is equipped with a color organic EL (OLED), making it easy to see the measurement results. If the SpO2 is 90% or higher, it will be displayed in blue, and if it is below 90% for suspected respiratory failure, the measured value will be displayed in orange. The display screen can be rotated 180 degrees so that both sides of the doctor/measurer can check the readings according to the scene.

SpO2 is less than 90% is displayed in blue, less than 90% is displayed in orange

The display range of SpO2 is 0 to 100% (in units of 1%), the measurement accuracy is ±2% ( 70-100%). The pulse rate display range is 28 to 255 beats/minute (in units of 1 beat/minute), and the measurement accuracy is ±2 beats/minute (30 to 99 beats/minute).

The body size is about 320 x 615 x 315 mm (width x depth x height). Weight is about 60g. Powered by 2 AAA alkaline batteries. Battery life is about 2000 times (30 seconds/time). The medical device certification number is 303AGBZX00010000.

The screen rotates 180 degrees. Related links that allow you to check the results from both the physician/measurer Group site links
