The Oxyview Pulse Oximeter is a very important and common device to check patient blood-oxygen saturation (SpO2) level and pulse rate. As a small, compact, simple, reliable and durable physiological monitoring device, the Oxyview Pulse Oximeter greatly enhances patient care, and fits both Adult and Pediatric patients. This small & lightweight design has a measurement range of 70% - 100%, and requires two AAA batteries. It has a Resolution of 1% with a measurement accuracy of 70% - 100%: +/- 3%. Some of the features include a dual color OLED display, display SpO2, PR, Pulse bar and Plethysmogram, 6 display modes, low power consumption, automatic power off, battery-low indicator, and an adjustable brightness feature.



This dynamic new product is the most sophisticated and cost competitive pulse oximeter in the market today. The company is selling the new device for $88.00, and when patients purchase the Oxyview Nasal Cannula they will earn points and receive the new Oxyview Pulse Oximeter at a discount. The market for this device includes the home oxygen patient market and the hospital markets.



"This new device will greatly enhance our revenues with expected sales of $1M in 2010, and increased sales with GSA contracts and our new distribution. The new Oxyview Pulse Oximeter has features that no other oximeter can offer, and the price is far less than that of any other Oximeter in its class," stated Scott R. Sand, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board.
