smartwatch vs oximeter

In the current situation the world facing a lot of trouble due to the second wave of coronavirus. Especially its situation is more serious in India at present. Thousands of people have died due to a lack of oxygen in the second wave of coronavirus. The Oxygen levels of people who are suffering from Covid are dropping down rapidly.

In such a situation you should keep a close watch on your Oxygen level so that the Oxygen level is low then you can take the consult with a doctor. Till now people were using an oximeter to measure their Oxygen but for some time many people are also using the smartwatch for this.

Oximeter and Smartwatch are being used to measure oxygen levels. In this article, we are telling you that a smartwatch is more accurate or an oximeter is better for checking blood oxygen levels.

As we know at present most smartwatches come with SpO2 features like the Huawei Watch, Apple Watch and more which is a good way to measure your Oxygen but a good oximeter proves to be more reliable than a smartwatch or smart band, as there is a technology difference between the two.

Reflection oximetry and transmitted oximetry are two methods to check blood oxygen levels. Reflection oximetry is used in smartwatches. At the same time, transmitted oximetry is used to measure SpO2 in normal oximeters. Now we will tell you the difference between these two technologies so that you will be clear why the oximeter is good for measuring Oxygen.

Difference between reflection oximetry and transmitted oximetry?

Transmitted oximetry: is considered the best method to measure SpO2. This device uses sensors mounted on two corners. When the finger is placed in the middle of the oximeter, one edge of the device emits light using a light source that hits the sensor on the other edge while passing through the finger. These sensors are photodiodes. The light properties and wavelengths are read from these sensors and then the SPO2 level based on the measurements.

Reflection oximetry: is used in smartwatches and fitness bands. In these, SpO2 is measured by light which is reflective of blood under the skin. In this, the light-emitting sensor and the light reading sensor are given on the same side. Simply put, there is no light transmission in smartwatches. Thus, it is proved that transmitted oximetry is more accurate for oxygen level checks because it is reading light that passes through a part of the body. The pulse oximeter is more accurate than a smartwatch for measuring SpO2.
