Our digital vital signs products

Bluetooth Pulse Oximeter

Measures the saturation of your red blood cells with oxygen providing an assessment of how well your lungs and heart are able to move oxygen around your body.

This device will also measure your Pulse, otherwise known as your Heart rate. This is the number of beats your heart makes per minute.

Bluetooth Blood Pressure Monitor

Measures your blood pressure. It will provide two numbers. First is the Systolic Blood pressure (SBP).

This is the pressure measured when you heart is contracting to push blood around your body. This will be the higher reading. The Diastolic blood Pressure (DBP) is the pressure when the heart is relaxed.

Forehead Thermometer

This provides a accurate, instant, and quiet reading of your body temperature. 

The large LED display ensures easy readability. It's designed for convenience, allowing you to quickly read temperatures even in low-light conditions, and its modern aesthetic adds a touch of sophistication to your health toolkit.

How to measure your SpO2

Select the pulse oximeter tile on the homepage. Make sure you have sat down and calmed down 3-5 minutes prior to using the oximeter.

Clip your pulse oximeter on your finger. Pinch one end of your pulse oximeter so the other end opens slightly. Hold your other hand so your palm faces toward you. Then, clip your pulse oximeter onto one of your fingers, with the display facing toward you. Make sure your finger is clean and you aren’t wearing nail polish or artificial (such as gel or acrylic) nails.

Start measuring. Press the button on your pulse oximeter to start measuring. It will show your blood oxygen level (SpO2%) and pulse rate (PRbpm). Keep your hand still while it’s measuring. Make sure your results are showing on the iHealth MyVitals app. If they are not, try moving your pulse oximeter to a different finder and pressing the button again.

Review your results. Once your results appear on the app, you can unclip the pulse oximeter from your finger. The iHealth MyVitals app will show you your results. Virtue will send an email for you to start sharing your data in their clinical platform
