Intended Use
Only use the SPO 55 pulse oximeter on people to measure the arterial oxygen saturation
(SpO₂) of haemoglobin and the heart rate (pulse rate). The pulse oximeter is suitable for
private environments (at home) and healthcare (hospitals, medical facilities).
Any other use not specified above or modification of the pulse oximeter is prohibited and
may result in injuries and / or damage the pulse oximeter. The manufacturer assumes no
liability for damages caused by improper use.
Function
The SPO 55 pulse oximeter serves non-invasive measurement of the arterial oxygen
saturation (SpO₂) and the heart rate (pulse rate). The oxygen saturation indicates the per-
centage of haemoglobin in the arterial blood is loaded with oxygen. The respiratory func-
tion is therefore an important parameter of assessment.
