What is SpO2 simulator calibration?
SpO₂ simulator calibration ensures these devices accurately simulate blood oxygen saturation and heart rate for testing pulse oximeters. Calibration involves comparing the simulator’s output against a calibrated reference device, verifying that patient monitoring systems provide reliable and precise measurements for healthcare applications.
Why is calibration important for SpO₂ simulators?
SpO₂ simulators play a crucial role in healthcare, medical device manufacturing, and patient monitoring. Regular calibration ensures:
- Accurate pulse oximeter testing
- Reliable patient diagnosis and treatment
- Quality assurance in medical device production
- Compliance with healthcare safety standards
Without proper calibration, pulse oximeters may provide incorrect oxygen saturation readings, compromising patient care and medical decision-making.
What experience does Calibrationhouse have in calibrating SpO2 simulators?
Calibrationhouse works with multiple NHS trusts and private healthcare providers to calibrate SpO₂ simulation instruments. Our calibration service is backed by Seaward Group brand partner, Rigel Medical, ensuring our staff are highly trained and equipped with the latest technology to calibrate a wide range of SpO₂ simulator brands.
How often should an SpO2 simulator be calibrated?
Calibrationhouse recommends annual calibration for all SpO₂ simulators, though specific schedules may vary depending on customer quality procedures. To assist with compliance, we provide automatic calibration reminders to keep devices accurately maintained.
Does Calibrationhouse provide certificates for SpO2 simulator calibration?
Yes, Calibrationhouse provides electronic certificates of conformity upon completion of calibration. These certificates ensure traceability to national and international standards, verifying that the calibration has been performed to industry-approved specifications.
