Re: Question on finger Oximeters
Since they operate by looking through your finger, and comparing the difference in transmission between red and infrared light, it shouldn't matter which way you put the oximeter on your finger. Does the watch oximeter look through the wrist? Not the subject at hand, if you want ...
