subject: Pulse Oximeters for All [print this page] Landon Medical was the pioneer in bringing fingertip pulse oximetry products to the masses at prices that were affordable by the common Joe Smith, and not Joe Kennedy. The LM-800 pulse oximeter was revolutionary, because it provided all the basic needs at a great cost, but quality was not sacrificed.
Recently, Landon Medical has set the pace again for ground breaking products with the consumer's best interests in mind. The price range of most pulse oximeters ranged around the $100 mark, with the LM-800 at the $40 range, but there was a gap between that price range. Certain consumers showed their interest for a finger pulse oximeter that was priced around the $60-70 range, with a few more features. Well Landon Medical took on the challenge, and recently introduced the LM-850.
The LM-850 pulse oximeter has all of the features of the LM-800, but a more advanced software which allows for even quick readings, and it also comes with an OLED screen. The OLED screen makes for an easier reading for persons with poor eye sight. The OLED screen also makes it easier for fire fighters and EMS professionals to see readings in all range of light sources while on the job. With that being said, the use of Landon Medical pulse oximeters by doctors, nurses, EMS professionals, and fire fighters has grown exponentially.
We bought a LM-850 pulse oximeter online from pulseoximetersdirect.com and tested it against a large clinical pulse oximeter worth thousands of dollars. The result? The measurements were within 1-2% accuracy. The kicker to these pulse oximeters are their price. Pulse Oximeters Direct sells the LM-800 pulse oximeter for $58.95 with all its accessories. It has the best and most accurate software, while still maintaining portability. They have been in business for many years, and provide great customer service along with a comprehensive 2-year warranty.
