1. Main Types of SpO₂ Probes

(1) Classification by Patient Type

• Adult SpO₂ probes: Designed for patients with thicker fingers, e.g., Philips M1191B.

• Pediatric SpO₂ probes: Smaller in size, suitable for children’s fingers, e.g., Philips M1193B.

• Neonatal SpO₂ probes: Specifically for infants, typically wrap-style or toe-worn, e.g., Philips M1192B.

(2) Classification by Usage

• Reusable probes: Sterilizable for multiple uses; costlier but durable, e.g., Masimo LNCS.

• Disposable probes: Prevent cross-contamination, ideal for infectious patients, e.g., Masimo MAX-FAST.

• Clip-type/Padded probes:

  • • Clip-type (e.g., Nonin 8000AA) for short-term monitoring.

    • Padded (e.g., Nellcor OxiSoft) for comfort during extended wear.
