Hi folks, does anyone know where a pulse oximeter can be bought cheap in the UK? Plenty on e bay from China with 5 week delivery.

UK suppliers charge £20 - £25 from what I can see so maybe that's the going price

Thanks :)

Mine is Biosync. Was £19 via Amazon. I chose that one because it can be used on babies too.

I got mine from ClinicalGuard.com. It's American made and when I took it to my GP for callibration it matched his exactly. Well pleased with it @ £25.

Biosync from Amazon does the trick and seems accurate when comparing pulse rate with what the blood pressure machine reads.

Get the Biosync for £17 inc postage. They are a godsend and well worth it.

Shhhh! Peeg has shares in Biosync! Ha ha! Fallen out with mine today, top reading too high, bottom reading too low. Seriously, mine has served me well and readings always match Community Matron's.

Haha Libs, I wish I had shares in something! ;)

slow controlled breathing usually levels mine out for now. Don't know what the future holds. Sleep well. I'm not tired which is a bummer when we're going to lose an hour tonight. Got to drag myself to Earls Court tomorrow for half 10. Silly me

I bought the Anapulse 100. I can't remember if I paid extra for delivery but it works really well. (from Amazon)

An oximeter is a device that fits on your finger when you want to know what your oxygen/blood saturation level is. They're about £18 on Amazon
