Improve the use of pulse oximetry in your health facility!
We’ve created a simple process to help you build your own pulse oximetry infographic. You can choose from preset information tiles each addressing different areas of best practice so you can prioritize issues most relevant in your setting. Follow the steps below and in seconds you will have a custom infographic to download and share. (Individual images can be downloaded here). This tool is currently in beta testing.
Choose a title that reflects your infographic’s message. Examples: 'Best Practices for Pulse Oximetry' or 'Avoiding Pulse Oximetry Errors.'
Choose the color for the title of document and tile header background color.

To meet 2017 ISO standards (80601-2-61) or 2013 FDA guideline adherence for clinical use, pulse oximeter performance must be tested in healthy humans in a laboratory setting. Independent device testing for the Open Oximetry Project follows our protocol consistent with ISO and FDA. Only devices labeled as ‘verified’ or ‘failed’ have been independently tested by the Open Oximetry Project.
All other devices listed show data from manufacturers or published literature and have not been confirmed by the Open Oximetry team. Scoring criteria will be modified based on evolving data on this topic. See the table below for scoring criteria for this category:
