    The functions are almost identical just a different style, this OzBargain one does include a lanyard where the one you linked to does not. Also with the coupon this deal has a price advantage.

  All medical device used by Health Care Professionals in Australia (including Hospitals) are TGA (Therapeutic Goods Administration) approved. It means that it is independently tested to meet minimum standards in accuracy and safety.

  Without TGA, there is no guarantee for safety or accuracy

    Exactly. I wouldn't trust something that costs ~$20 to take accurate readings, in the same way I wouldn't trust a $20 breath tester to give an accurate BAC reading.

      These devices don't work with voodoo but via a very simple method, I have the version with a microsd card slot for logging and it's very accurate.

      I would trust this to be within a few percent of a unit costing hundreds or thousands of dollars.

        That's fine for your personal use, but given they've advertised it as a medical device for health professionals then the standards need to be much higher, when all sorts of ethics and legislation come into play.

        Having worked for years in a health field, I wouldn't even begin to be as reckless as you when lives depend on the accuracy and reliability of medical equipment.

    I agree with the Tga part
    There is a cheapy one on Kogan website which is Tga approved, however I wouldn't even trust that one

      We have just edited the deal to make it clear it is for home use only and would like to thank you all for informing us of the TGA and its regulations

        Anyone who would need an oximeter would have a serious health condition
        The question is how reliable is this when it's most needed in suboptimum condition: peripheral shutdown, cold hands, weak pulse, kids unable to keep hands still etc
        For those with asthma copd heart failure etc better to get a tga approved device

        It is tested before it leaves the factory, although it is not certified to TGA standards it still performs to a great standard. As long as it is firmly attached to a finger it can read the pulse.

    No you wouldn't, for a start it's unlikely to be used in a professional capacity but the units are simple and very accurate.

      Your reply makes no sense, and is quite wrong.

      Firstly device is advertised above as a medical device for use in health care - which is quite illegal given that it's not an approved medical device in the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods.

      Because of this, anyone importing these cheap units for use in health care would be facing jail time and steep fines if caught.

      Secondly, there's no evidence that it's even slightly accurate. I'm guessing from your English that you're affiliated with Banggood, in which case you need to declare it.

        Their advertising is not illegal and the TGA are not going to prosecute anyone for using these for health care let alone send them to jail.

        I have no affiliation with banggoood unlike your clear association with the useless TGA who are unable to police serious issues so what makes you think they care about an instrument like this?

        And yes they are accurate, take some time to understand how they work and you'll realise this.

        @Maverick-au: Argue all you want, but it's pretty clear that their use in health care is illegal.

        Most hospitals employ someone with the sole responsibility of maintaining, calibrating, and record keeping for medical equipment purely to meet guidelines, so yes these kinds of things are checked in detail.

  Appears to be a very similar item, with lower price (US$13.40 and free shipping), here:

  The only circumstance this is legal for a health professional to use this device is for themselves or their immediate family, under the Personal Importation Scheme. A quick read of TGA guidelines:

  1/ A health professional using this in a clinical or hospital setting counts as "supplying" medical devices to the public, meaning they'd be responsible for applying to get it on the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG).

  2/ To do the above, they'd be responsible for making sure the medical device meets Australian regulatory guidelines for medical devices (ARGMD), including paying the relevant fees to the TGA;

  3/ Failing to do this could lead to steep fines of up to $550,000 and up to five years imprisonment.

  Not really a bargain. You really need to stop advertising this for anyone involved in health care, as this is the one segment of the population who aren't allowed to use it without going to great lengths to make it legal.

  Tga the toothless tiger. I ttust this device as much as I trust the large majority of tga approved over the counter pain medications. This is goid to pass it around when mates come over. I don't think we run the risk of hospitals ordering a batch

  OP / Banggood writes "Medical equipment has never been so affordable", it implies this device is a medical equipment but actually it is not in oz.

  "up to 20 hours or monitoring"

  How is displayed? Or is that until the battery dies?

  Ive been for 2 sleep studies…I couldn't sleep either time. Too many wires and things in my nose :|

  Wondering if this would supply a graph the next morning to give me an idea of o2 during sleep?
