68065 - BC Biomedical FingerSim Pulse Oximeter Testing System

The BC Biomedical FingerSim System provides a rapid, inexpensive and convenient means of assessing the function of the entire pulse oximeter system, including the oximeter sensor. A set of three FingerSims are included in this kit. Each of the three FingerSims contain a fluid with precisely controlled light absorption characteristics which are sandwiched between two glass slides. The concentration of the substances in the three mixtures allow the FingerSim to mimic the light absorbing qualities of arterial blood as measured by an oximeter at different oxygen saturation values (nominally 97%, 90% and 80%). The FingerSims are easily identified by the color coded end caps (Red - 97%, Blue - 90% and Black - 80%). Squeezing the colored coded flat end will produce a pulsatile movement of the solution. This pulsation is detected as a pulse by the oximeter system being tested, thus allowing the oximeter to calculate and display an SpO2 value. The value corresponds to the fixed light absorbing characteristics of the particular FingerSim being used. Includes: 80% FingerSim CAL'D TO 05/07 90% FingerSim CAL'D TO 05/07 97% FingerSim CAL'D TO 05/07 FingerSim Holder Plastic Carrying Case The BC Biomedical FingerSim can be used with any finger probe SpO2 monitor.
