The conventional use of pulse oximeters is done in hospitals pre <strong>and</strong> post surgeries. It is also<br />

used during surgeries when the patient is anesthetized. The rising number of surgeries <strong>and</strong><br />

procedure. These devices are once purchased <strong>and</strong> require servicing <strong>and</strong> are not replaced<br />

frequently. The use of pulse oximeters in newborn screening also adds to the number of devices<br />

procured by the hospitals in their maternity <strong>and</strong> pediatric care divisions.<br />

expansion of the homecare market. Hospices <strong>and</strong> even nursing care centers are procuring<br />

oximeters to provide better care to their customers.<br />
