33 Incredibly Useful Life Hacks

Monitor Your Health At Home With The Blaux Oxi Level

We had to throw this life hack in here because it is so relevant to the current state of affairs the world is in (*ahem*cornavirus*ahem). The Blaux Oxi Level is a home health monitoring tool that let’s you check your oxygen levels.

Blaux Oxi Level assesses your breathing by measuring the oxygen saturation in your arterial blood. It simply clips on to your finger to do this. If your oxygen number falls below a certain threshold (usually around 90%, but check with your primary care doctor to get your usual threshold) then you will want to check in with your doctor and see if hospital care is necessary.

This device can help you catch any health problems early or it can help you stay calm when you are not feeling well by reassuring you that your levels are ok. Because we all know global pandemics can cause anxiety and anxiety can cause shortness of breath and shortness of breath is a symptom of illness – a vicious cycle so it’s reassuring to check your levels every once in awhile.
