Description:

The Par Physio-Port Duo is a dual ambulatory monitor for blood pressure and oxygen saturation. Medaval has not found evidence proving the accuracy of its blood pressure measurement technology and information regarding the accuracy of its oxygen saturation measurement technology does not appear to be available. Blood pressure measurements are taken from the upper arm and oxygen saturation measurements are taken from the finger. It is intended for ambulatory monitoring.
