A1 Pediatric Kids Fingertip Rechargeable Pulse

Pediatric pulse oximeters are designed to be able read oxygen (SpO2 %) and heart rate from primarily the toes and/or fingers of neonates (under 8lbs.), infants (5 to 45 lbs.), and children (under 75 lbs.).

The most common type of pediatric pulse oximeters are hand held pulse oximeters with a sensor that is designed specifically for the weight/size of the child. Hand held oximeters are preferred because you can use different sensors depending on the size of the person. Hand held oximeters can also take readings from the forehead and ear with the appropriate sensor. Ears and/or foreheads can be used as a location to take a reading but it is not recommended for children under 50 lbs.
