3.0 out of 5 starsI ordered to use with hospital grade infant (toe) attachments but they did not read that there were any attachments. The attachments that came with it worked great though.

1.0 out of 5 starsFour days of going back and forth with customer service and I had to return this item because the software download does NOT work with Windows 11 as stated in the description. I even ran it in Windows 7 and Windows 8 compatibility modes and it does not work. I can create the patient files but the tables crash when archiving the data to the patient file or the data does not transfer at all. There is no way to show doctors trends with software that won’t work properly. I have ordered a device from another company that will arrive tomorrow and this product is going directly into that packaging to return to CMI. The device itself works great but I am so disappointed with the software and the lack of understanding about the problem when communicating with customer service.

3.0 out of 5 starsThis CMI Health Rechargeable Pulse Oximeter worked well while it did. The last week it’s been glitching visually. Today it’s unrecoverable. It is now a month and two days after the warranty ended. Hmm… For $200 this should have lasted more than a year. I see now the price has dropped…

5.0 out of 5 starsI purchased this product (Rechargeable Pulse Oximeter) because my loved one suffered a stroke and ultimately required a trach and continuous oxygen. I care for him 24/7 at home and this continuous oxygen saturation monitor is able to be set to alarm at his prescribed threshold low O2 sat level and it also alarms for the heart rate high/low as set by user. This enables me to sleep with peace of mind. I am a registered nurse and I would endorse this product! Additionally, customer service has been extremely responsive the two times I have contacted them. I broke the USB wall plug so I e-mailed the company [email protected] late last evening and early this morning, I already received a call and they are shipping me a new cord today, 100% free of charge. I could not be more pleased with this product or with the customer service rep, Gideon. Highly recommend!

3.0 out of 5 starsCMI provides the complete package depending on your sensor needs. The accuracy was compared to a finger oximeter as both were within several % of each other. The only issue I had was trying to download and read the oximeter results on my desktop computer. The downloading didn’t seem user friendly to me. The results were broken up in eight chunks of data versus a constant stream of data was a little confusing to me. I used another vendor’s oximeter, which provided the constant data from start to when I woke up. Others may disagree on the data results preference. It’s a nice package with the two different sensors and compact zippered bag for travel purposes. I would have rated it higher if the data results were to my liking.

5.0 out of 5 starsIt has built in data storage and exports reports to a MS based computer. My only complaint is a stupid stiff cable to the power supply. It is not a USB connector. Company is located in Atlanta, GA.

1.0 out of 5 starsThe first one I ordered came as the picture showed. I bought another one and it came with one finger monitor (a large one). The small comfortable rubber one was not included. I would not recommend purchasing.

5.0 out of 5 starsI even took it into the hospital . It’s very good and easy to use.
T. Mc –
4.0 out of 5 starsEasy to use right out of box. Good charge life, easy to recharge. Great for longer use, while walking around. I have severe lung disease, on oxygen so need to monitor O2 levels occasionally. I have not set up option for storing data on computer. So no review on that. It does seem accurate compared to other devices ( hospital) . I keep on silence so that it only beeps when too high or too low. Definitely better than cheaper smaller finger units. This one can be used continuously whether walking or sleeping .

5.0 out of 5 starsGreat product
Amazon Customer –
3.0 out of 5 starsUltimately it does what it states, overnight recording of pulse/ox levels.Down side is it has very limited memory and can only take one reading every 8 seconds if you record over night.Also, you cannot completely turn off the sound. You can mute it when it starts but if the sensor falls off or loses connection, it starts beeping again.There is another product that is just the standard sensor size that records all night with no sound for under $100, but it requires 2 AAA batteries, and they only last a few nights, and the sensor doesn’t stay on well overnight.I thought at this price I would be getting a better product.

1.0 out of 5 starsI find the user interface a bit clunky but was overall happy with the function and readout. In order to make good use of the data recording feature, though, I wanted to export the data to my PC. There are many easy ways that this could be done, and it could just function like a plug & play data stick. But instead, you have to download software only available from CMI health, and this software contains a trojan virus that is recognized by my virus scanners as enabling remote access to your PC. Google search confirms. The CMI download website *helpfully* suggest you click ‘trust’ if asked. No thank you. I could have bought a $20 fingertip unit for quick readings, since that is all I can now use this for.

1.0 out of 5 starsWe bought this for my elderly Mom who has dementia and COPD. The silicone sensor will not stay on her finger overnight for continuous montitoring. The hard plastic sensor is not meant to because prolonged use causes calluses to develop on her finger. We had the EMTs test this expensive sensor vs their and it was severely inaccurate. In addition, we had them test the $19 version which we use in the car and the reading was much closer to what the EMTs got on their device. This is simply not worth the money…especially if it is intended for the elderly.

5.0 out of 5 starsI had nasal surgery and can’t use my bipap machine for 2 weeks. Having central sleep apnea, it can be dangerous because I stop breathing at times. The pulse oximeter warns me if my oxygen level gets low. The beeping can be muted and returns as a warning. I think of this as a life saver.
Nancy L. –
5.0 out of 5 starsI discovered my CPAP doesn’t work well when placed on the floor by my bed. My oxygen level was dropping too low even though I was using the CPAP. I placed my CPAP higher on a night stand and now my readings are very good. The PC software is for Windows and not documented well, but I eventually figured it out. The profusion index was new to me. It can vary from person to person and from finger to finger on the same person. Use the fingers with the highest profusion index for connecting the sensor.

5.0 out of 5 starsPurchased about two years ago. I have sleep apnea (and apparently apnea induced AFib) and use the device periodically to check oxygen level fluctuations throughout the night. I generally set my alarm level at 85% and download the data the next morning to my laptop (reviewers have complained about the software download but there seems to have been an upgrade on the software because I didn’t get non-stop virus warnings with the download when I installed it on my new laptop). The instructions are not very clear (the typical language issues we have all come to expect with products manufactured in some countries) so the software requires some trial and error to generate the report. It does generate a very thorough report and my pulmonologist and general practice Doc were both complimentary. One of those reports recently triggered another sleep study and ultimately resulted in an increase in my CPAP pressure. I can’t comment on accuracy because I have no way to calibrate the device and I don’t want to trust a $10, shirt pocket model to validate accuracy on the CMI device. As I recall, there are a number of reviews on Amazon by medical professionals that attest to the device’s accuracy (I read a lot of reviews before I pulled the trigger on this $180 or so purchase!). My spouse is an RN and she has also been pleased with the purchase as well and she now uses it occasionally. In fact, her physician looked at one of her recent reports and has ordered a sleep study for her. No regrets about the purchase whatsoever!

4.0 out of 5 starsThe produce is fine and works appropriately. The case and software are a little crude but work. A little expensive.

5.0 out of 5 starsI ordered this device to have one hand for the needs of loved ones. I have 2 other more portable pulse oximeters that are simpler to use, and designed more for the lay person. This CMI Health product is clearly designed for far more sophisticated use. It comes with a lot of accessories to sort out, and instructions that were hard for me to completely understand without some googling and consulting a medical professional who is a friend. Everything about this product seems to be high quality, and once I knew more about what I was doing, it appeared to be at least as accurate as simpler devices, with more far reaching use. Thank god we haven’t needed to use this device in critical circumstances thus far, but it is reassuring to have it on hand and available.
Matthew Smith –
4.0 out of 5 starsThis device needs a serious upgrade with its alarm feature, they need work with the people who make the Screaming Meanie TZ-120This is very useful except that the alarm is 1/4 as loud as an alarm clock.It needs to be able to wake the dead, so the dont end up dead.As it is this device would not wake most people, it beeps like like a tiny bird.
David Good –
3.0 out of 5 starsDevice doesn’t remember clock settings when I set the date/time. The beep alarm isn’t very loud, and there’s no way to actually keep the beep turned off. I have to keep running over and muting it when my fiance’s heart rate goes up. For what I paid for it it’s not very customizable.

4.0 out of 5 starsThe unit I received was missing the dust cover and just received a replacement from Gideon Frazer yesterday. The app/program for Windows is very misleading and everything leads one to believe the PC-66L can be downloaded to the Windows computer via USB or Bluetooth. While waiting for the replacement PC-66L to arrive I purchased BT 5.0 USB adapter to allow my desktop computer to pair with the PC-66L but had no luck. After receiving the replacement unit I again attempted to pair it with the newly installed Bluetooth- No Luck on detection/pairing. Also had not received any response from your support so again called Gideon and discovered the PC-66L has NO Bluetooth capabilities!I (now) understand the app is a ‘fits all’ for your line of assorted monitors, but the learning curve could have been made much easier by clearer advertising/manuals/application data. The PC-66l seems to be more professional a unit than a toy (as much is) but by having to use a USB cable instead of Bluetooth is cumbersome at best!!It appears so far to be a solid, heavy-duty piece of equipment.

3.0 out of 5 starsI would give it excellent IF it wasn’t lacking these 2 major things, first the alarm doesn’t goes off before 90 seconds. It should be customable to the user’s need or gives you say 3 settings starting from 30 seconds, then 60, and 90 sec for example. The second one is the screen light is on all the time while it would be more suitable to get on only when the alarming beep sounds. In more this will elongate the battery life.

Dylan Sallee –
5.0 out of 5 starsI care for my mom with advanced COPD and emphysema. We’ve used several fingertip oximeters through the years, and they’re all kinda bad. Pulse oximetry is already an inexact science, and often those fingertip models would give wildly inaccurate results, or be unable to get a reading at all. My mom has diminutive hands with poor circulation/perfusion index, and sometimes the fingertip readers could take up to a minute to display a reading.This piece of equipment is a whole other ballgame. Obviously it’s quite a bit more expensive, but it’s worth it when caring for someone with a chronic disease. Everything seems very well made, and compares favorably to pulse oximetry equipment used in the hospital. The reader always gets a reliable pulse-ox measurement within a few seconds, and includes a handy graph (plethysmograph) to more accurately determine the signal’s integrity, and therefore the accuracy of the reading.Finally, this device can monitor and record the data continuously for quite a long time! (We’ve been using it for days, and still haven’t filled the internal memory.) The PC software is very capable (albeit a bit poorly designed), and can generate impressively detailed and clinically-useful reports that we share with my mom’s doctor. It is instrumental in more accurately understanding her condition, especially during a flare up. It even connects (and charges) via USB-C! Neat!My only complaint is the pulse rate beep function. When you put on the probe, the monitor begins to beep with the user’s heart rate. You can mute it with a button press, but if the sensor loses connection (I.e. when shifting during sleep), the mute resets, and the machine will start beeping again. This makes the device hard to use during sleep, as often it will randomly start beeping after the probe loses connection for a second. I’d really like an option to turn that off, but maintain the ability to alarm if a low pulse-ox is detected.Overall, I still highly recommend this monitor. Apparently it’s FDA-approved (though I’d like to see additional clarification/proof of that), and the company seems reputable. You can pay for it with an HSA/FSA, so it seems like some vetting has occurred there. In general, it’s so much better than anything else on Amazon/Walgreens/whatever and is well worth the price.
