Covid-19 pneumonia cases are very different. A vast majority of Covid pneumonia patients I met had relatively minimal apparent distress, despite dangerously low oxygen levels and terrible pneumonia on chest X-rays,\u201d <\/em>writes Dr. Richard Levitan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Based on this scenario, he offers an important reflection in his article about a product Biologix already uses in Brazil: an oximeter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\"There is a way we could identify more patients who have Covid-19 pneumonia sooner and treat them more effectively. And it would not require waiting for a coronavirus test at a hospital or doctor\u2019s office. It requires detecting silent hypoxia early through a common medical device that can be purchased without a prescription at most pharmacies: a pulse oximeter\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Levitan points out oximeters are not more complicated to use than thermometers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cThese small devices are placed on a fingertip. In a few seconds, two numbers are displayed: oxygen saturation and pulse rate. Pulse oximeters are extremely reliable in detecting oxygenation problems and elevated heart rates.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dessa forma, ainda segundo Dr. Levitan, o paciente poderia usar o ox\u00edmetro em casa ou ir at\u00e9 uma cl\u00ednica fazer a medi\u00e7\u00e3o, o que promoveria alertas ao sistema de sa\u00fade sobre problemas respirat\u00f3rios mais graves de seus pacientes. O especialista ressalta que todos os pacientes com Covid-19 deveriam dispor de um ox\u00edmetro, mesmo os que ainda n\u00e3o t\u00eam o diagn\u00f3stico, mas est\u00e3o com sintomas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sensor Oxistar\u00ae: o ox\u00edmetro de alta resolu\u00e7\u00e3o da Biologix<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In Brazil, Biologix offers a high-resolution oximeter that hospitals and\/or physicians are using to monitor remotely the oxygen saturation of patients who tested positive or are with suspicion of Covid-19. Its use can predict the evolution of the disease, and the Online Monitoring Center is able to monitor a countless number of patients. Monitoring is performed via a cell phone application, which receives information on O2 saturation and heart rate collected by the oximeter on patients\u2019 finger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All the information is sent on-line automatically and in real time to the clinical monitoring center in charge of caring for these patients, thus allowing an early intervention of the medical team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>O artigo publicado pelo New York Times comprova os benef\u00edcios do ox\u00edmetro, que monitora o paciente, permite o tratamento preventivo, protege os profissionais da sa\u00fade e salva vidas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Click on Click HERE to read the full-text article. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2020\/04\/20\/opinion\/coronavirus-testing-pneumonia.html?smid=fb-share\">clique AQUI<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Know more about Biologix Clinical Signs Monitoring.
