Pulse Oximeter
A small piece of equipment that clips onto a person’s finger, a pulse oximeter helps in detecting blood oxygen level. In particular, if you have someone having respiratory issues, the device can be of great help. The normal blood oxygen saturation level for someone who is healthy will be around 95–100%
According to World Health Organization (WHO) Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) Situation Report-41, “Oxygen therapy is the major treatment intervention for patients with severe COVID-19. All countries should work to optimize the availability of pulse oximeters and medical oxygen systems”.
Blood Pressure Meter
According to a report done by the Department of Statistics Malaysia, Ministry of Health, Ischemic Heart Diseases (coronary heart disease) is the No.1 cause of death in Malaysia in 2019. Diabetes, Hypertension, and High Cholesterol level are the major Non-Communicative Diseases (NCDs) in Malaysia.
Especially in this pandemic era, stress and an inactive lifestyle have become one of the major factors for hypertension. Thus, having this medical device at home is a wise investment to detect high blood pressure earlier.
Thermometer
Given the flu season and ongoing pandemic, having a thermometer at home is an essential medical tool. Our temperature reading changes based on where on our body we measure it. We could seek medical advice in the earlier stage if there are abnormal symptoms associated with fever or hypothermia (low body temperature).
Regular health checks are the key to maintaining a healthy life. Keeping health monitoring equipment at home helps in managing chronic conditions and may save a life in the hour of need. In this global pandemic and its uncertainties, health should remain as a priority.
