One thing most people miss is that the finger should be warm when measuring. Just hold that finger in your fist to warm it up nicely before measuring. I had panicked last year because I did everything he mentioned, and still my oxygen levels seemed dangerously low. Immediately I ran to a clinic and the doctor was like, warm your finger nicely and check again. Every time I warmed it, it showed normal levels only. Felt like a fool that day for panicking without knowing how to use it.

Thanks Dr. I’d like to mention two more common mistakes patients make and often get a wrong reading- 1. The measuring finger must not be cold, as it gives a lower reading. 2. Check the battery level. If you’re and your SpO2 is 99, and drops within seconds to 60- such abrupt changes are often due dysfunctional oxymeter owing to low battery.

One more important tip keep batteries new always, as old batteries will show wrong readings often

Good advice. But you omitted the most important point. *PUT ONLY MIDDLE FINGER IN THE METER* as the first falange of this finger contains maximum number of blood vessels in comparison of the first finger.
Valuable info. Thanks 👍🏿🙏🏿
My oxygen levels go down when I'm laying flat on my lungs. I'm on oxygen. I find with my cpap machine i need to lower my oxygen needs at sleep time because the cpap forces more oxygen into my lungs. This was never explained to me by anyone.

@@arpitakulshrestha1551 yes my father is fine now, his saturation stays above 95, ask your mother to perform regular yoga and take steam therapy regularly three times in a day, emphasize on anulom vilom and pranayam and tell her to drink lots of luke warm water and also tell her to sleep on prone positions. And avoid cold foods, tell her to remain positive, positivity plays an important role. This really helps, and give her good food, don't let her skip meals. If saturation goes below 90, then consult doctor asap, but i think she'll be alright if she has crossed 15 days of covid.
Also an important point...it shows oxygen level really low if the batteries have become loose..don't panic remove and the batteries and put it again and check it again
Yes it’s important to wait for a few seconds or minutes, readjust and check other fingers or other hands fingers to get it correct(middle,index and ring finger only). if the reading persistently starts going below 90 then only you should act.. don’t worry unnecessarily
Thanks Brut, The very much needed info.
The great all rounders of indian team yuraj singh and jadeja
Can we change the finger to middle finger instead of index finger, in case of inaccurate reading?

My oxygen levels drops sometimes after meals or workouts. I get suddenly fatigued. And if I check my levels they can drop down to like 90 bur eventually resovles on it's own. What can that be an indication of?

Left or right hand. Middle finger
but remember that pulse oximeter goes down only when the oxygen saturation in blood goes down...and your lungs is having shortage of oxygen very before from the time oximeter will show it, so be alert and observe the patient very precisely, proning and steroid on time can help.
