– ViATOM Bluetooth Pulse Oximeter Approved UK Built-in Offline Storage, Oxygen Monitor finger Adults for Heart Rate Blood Oxygen Saturation Includes Carrycase and Lanyard, Free APP

Picked up the ViATOM Bluetooth Pulse Oximeter (UK approved, built-in offline storage) and it’s been solid. Readings are consistent and line up closely with other devices I’ve compared it against, which is exactly what you want from something measuring oxygen saturation and pulse. It powers on quickly, is easy to use, and gives clear, readable results without any faffing around. The Bluetooth feature is handy if you want to sync data, but I really appreciate that it has built-in offline storage too — you’re not forced to use your phone every single time. One feature I genuinely like is the little alarm if levels drop below 95%. It’s not obnoxious, just a helpful prompt that makes you pay attention. Subtle but reassuring. Build quality feels decent, display is bright and easy to read, and overall it’s just a straightforward, dependable device. If you want something simple, accurate, and with the added bonus of alerts and storage, this is a great option. Five stars. Does exactly what it’s meant to — and does it well.

This is easier to use and more reliable than other Oximeters I’ve used. The Oximeter starts automatically when the finger is inserted and consistently produces results that are easy to read and seem accurate. The associated app is easy to connect and provides a way of keep track of readings over a number of days which is a lot more useful than Oximeters that simply record only the result at the time. Overall an excellent product that is easy to use and captures data in a meaningful way

First impressions The build quality is what you would probably expect from a device in this price range. The device is more expensive than others due to the Bluetooth option. I paid £25.99 which is about £10 more than for similar devices without a Bluetooth option. There are two different device colours. Blue for the EU and grey for the UK. I'm in the UK and was sent the grey version. No idea what the difference between them is. These are the main details written on the label on the back of the device: Fingertip Oximeter Wellue Viatom www.viatomtech.com Model PC-60FW Date: 2020-12 Rating: IP22 The IP22 rating apparently means this: Protected from touch by fingers and objects greater than 12 millimetres. Protected from water spray less than 15 degrees from vertical. On the back of the box it says that the device was manufactured by Shenzhen Creative Industry Co. Ltd in China. Box contents 1. Oxygen Meter 2. Carry pouch 3. Lanyard 4. Device instructions - for standard models 4. Bluetooth connectivity and app guide 6. Pair off AAA batteries The carry pouch is made of a type of thin synthetic suede with a draw string at the top. Very basic but will protect the device. I will probably look to find an alternative at some point if I can be bothered later. Using the device It was easy to get the batteries in and powering up the unit is as easy as putting a finger inside. Due to the auto wake feature it means the device is always in stand by mode which will eventually drain the batteries. The instructions say to remove the batteries if the device is not going to be used for seven days. The button on the front has three functions. 1. Without a finger inserted; the button displays the previous 12 readings. 2. With a finger inserted; the button rotates the display. There are four different orientations. 3. With a finger inserted and after a long press; the button reveals a settings screen where you can turn off the reading beeps and alter the alarm levels of both the oxygen and the low and high pulse rates. I had no trouble taking readings myself. My hands are warm and dry and I think they are quite normal looking. I did try it on my elderly father and he struggled with it. Even though he put his fingers in exactly as I did, it took him so much longer to get a reading. I tried this with a variety of his fingers and they all had the same issue. As I bought the device for myself I'm not going to let this issue affect my rating but it is something to be aware of. The device appears to work by shining a red LED though your finger. You get a glimpse of the red light as you take your finger out. During normal operation this red light is not visible. The instructions give a hint on how you can prove that the device is taking accurate readings. They suggest that you could hold your breath for over 50 seconds which should result in lower oxygen blood levels being read. I tried this and my levels did noticeably drop. The Android app Name: ViHealth Developed by: Viatom Version (at time of review): 2.72.0 Permissions required: Location and Storage It was quite straightforward to install and connect up to the device to the app. As long as Bluetooth is enabled on the phone the app should connect to the device without any difficulties. The device just appears and you click on it. If Bluetooth is disabled on the phone the app can be started in an offline mode. The app offers to open the Android setting page so you can enable Bluetooth. After taking readings they drop into the app and then can be accessed in the history section. New readings are highlighted with bold text. After they have been viewed the bold text reverts back to standard text. Readings can be deleted by sliding them to the side and then clicking on the big red delete button. It's possible to examine each reading session's data in detail but it remains a separate data set. There is an overview display on the history tab but to examine detailed measurements from the readings you need to go into the individual datasets. Notes can be added to each dataset. This is done via an edit button. Exporting from the app is quite poor. The only export option in version 2.72.0 is via screen shots of the individual dataset graphs. There is no option to export raw data for Excel in the Android version. No CSV export is provided. I was quite disappointed by this. On Google Play this app is listed as not being available to users in Europe. I'm in the UK but this did not stop me from installing the app. This might be something to do with GDPR and the permissions the app required. It needs storage and location permissions. I did not have to sign up for anything or give any personal details. I expect my location and readings are being stored in a big Chinese database which is probably totally against the GDPR regulations. Conclusions I'm happy to recommend but really can't give it top marks due to the lack of a raw data export feature in the app. Knocking one star off for this. Having fingers that the device can't read from would be a big negative point. Luckily I have the right type of fingers! If you run into finger reading issues just send it back and look elsewhere but I suspect that most of these devices use similar technology so might also have similar issues with your fingers. Hope this review helps.

I already had an oximeter, but I needed one that would record. this does that. the app is easy to use and gives me all the information I need. it is good quality. shows your oxygen level, it has good functionality, it is good value for money. it also shows your pulse rate. having the recording functionality really helps. I would recommend.

I haven't managed to mess about with all the memory functions yet as I've not needed to but I know how. Due to cognitive issues I really struggle with using devices that have a single buttons/couple of buttons to cycle through so many options, I just can't do it... And yet this device is so clear, great instructions and easy to use, it's been really helpful and actually helped me get treatment yesterday as I could prove I had a consistently very high heart rate. Turns out dental infections can be terrifying! It has spread into my sinuses and from there, it had direct access to my brain. Without my notes recording all my readings and photos of the results as evidence, I don't think I'd have been taken seriously at all. So I for one am extremely grateful! The beep alarmed from a high or low reading is also very useful!

Sturdy and Very accurate, so easy to use, and can store on the app, highly recommend, also very reasonable price

A very useful Pulse Oximeter. It can be used as a stand-alone device, or in conjunction with the ViHealth App. Pairing with the App was as simple as it could be. The App looks better on a tablet, rather than a smart phone, simply due to the size of the display. The App is very useful for long-term monitoring/recording, and for generating reports, which can be saved as JPG images or PDF Report files, which can be sent via email, WhatsApp messages and more. Overall, I'm very pleased with it and it does everything I need. 👍

Excellent product

El oxímetro Oxysmart-03-B es un dispositivo funcionalmente muy completo que se corresponden con la descripción del vendedor. Tiene todo lo que buscaba en un oxímetro: precisión tanto en la medición de oxígeno como en las pulsaciones (coincide en las mediciones con las de una banda deportiva con oxímetro), índice de perfusión (IP), alarma sonora y visual ante valores fuera de rango, medición tanto puntual como de forma continua (este modo es importante), pantalla a color nítida con 4 modos de orientación y visualización de los datos, memoria interna para guardar las últimas 12 mediciones, y además este modelo al tener bluetooth permite almacenar en el móvil todas las mediciones en modo continuo siempre que se hagan teniendo activa la aplicación Vihealth. Esta posibilidad de pasar los datos a móvil no la tienen la mayoría de los oxímetros, y cuando se quiere hacer una medición continua para luego analizar los resultados esta utilidad es muy útil e importante. La conexión del oxímetro con la aplicación es inmediata y el funcionamiento es perfecto. El oxímetro tiene un pequeño menú para configurar algunos parámetros como: valor mínimo del oxígeno, valores máximo o mínimo del ritmo cardíaco, modo medición (puntual o continuo), y sonido beep on/off. Una aportación interesante que incluye este oxímetro es que tras una medición puntual (después de 30 segundos de medición) muestra en el propio oxímetro una valoración de los resultados medidos mediante un breve texto (en inglés). Estos mensajes de valoración pueden ser 12 textos distintos, por ejemplo: no se han encontrado irregularidades en los datos medidos, o sospecha de pulso acelerado, o sospecha de pulso lento, o sospecha de intervalo irregular del pulso, etc. El oxímetro se enciende automáticamente al meter el dedo y se apaga al sacarlo. En el envío no se incluyó la bolsa de transporte pero al contactar con el vendedor éste muy diligentemente solventó el despiste. En mi caso, una cosa que no me gustó es que no vino con el manual en español, sin embargo hay usuarios que afirman que a ellos sí les llego en español. En cualquier caso, es un producto muy recomendable.

Parfait

Acquistato per sostituire il vecchio che ogni tre X due dovevo sostituire le batterie. Questo ossimetro, invece, è davvero funzionante, lo uso per mia mamma per misurare l’ossigenazione sanguigna ogni 4 ore circa, sono rimasto sorpreso per la durata delle batterie che da 10 giorni sono ancora al massimo. La misurazione è precisa, verificata con quello del medico, oltretutto, mia mamma ha bassa circolazione sanguigna nelle dita delle mani ma questo ossimetro riesce, nella maggior parte delle volte, a leggere le pulsazioni. L’ho collegato con la sua app all’iphone e funziona una meraviglia collegamento stabile e verificato per due ore di seguito in un’altra stanza, nessun problema. Meriterebbe 6 stelle per tutto il suo funzionamento e sono soddisfatto e lo consiglio vivamente.

Ottimo articolo, fa il suo dovere e lo fa bene.

La primera impresión la verdad es que no fue buena...caja con dobleces que me hace sospechar de un posible reembalado y modelo no corresponde con el anunciado. Una vez abierta la caja, mejora un poco la sensación.....bolsita de transporte, pilas y cordon. Una vez probado, parecen correctas las mediciones (frecuencia cardiaca cotejada e identica a dos pulsometros que tengo, y, si bien no tengo con que comparar la saturacion, se aprecian las variaciones que son previsibles durante apnea). Intuitivo y me gusta la app android (se pueden poner notas a los registros, lo que es util para registrar valores de referencia de toda la familia). Precio algo inferior a otras alternativas similares. En fin, Recomiendo el producto
