On his website, Johnny Jet talked about adding a finger pulse oximeter to your travel health kit. An oximeter can be used to monitor changes in your respiratory condition as it registers your pulse rate. And it lights up and it fits on your finger, so I figured I must have one! I bought the AccuMed one Johnny recommend on Amazon. The company says it fits all finger sizes from kids above four years old to adults as it measures the level of oxygen in the blood and reads the pulse rate in just eight to ten seconds. It is crucial to use the device in a stationary position and not while in motion for precise readings. Equipped with two AAA batteries (included), the oximeter automatically powers off when not in use and delivers up to 20 continuous hours of battery life. Comes with a travel case and lanyard. — And from the Giz Wiz. I love this device! This is way easier and much smaller than another device I was using to take my pulse! And this one also tells you your oxygen saturation level. I’m not sure why you need to know that, but online I read it should be between 95 and 100. Mine runs about 95-97, so I’m good. I like to sit quite sometimes and see how low I can get my pulse rate. Usually down to the low 50’s. I paid around $32 for mine. — UPDATE: The one I bought is no longer available on Amazon as of 10/16/20, but there’s another one there from the same company that seems to do the same thing, and it’s only about $20.
