An oximeter is a device to measure the oxygen saturation level in blood. I believe that a "pulse" oximeter has a sensor to measure pulse as well, though it wouldn't surprise me if some devices not having such a sensor but otherwise looking and working like a pulse oximeter were casually called that too.
You can purchase a pulse oximeter on Overstock.com. They offer many different options at different price points.
An oxygen meter, also known as a pulse oximeter, works by using light to measure the oxygen saturation of your blood. It emits light through your fingertip and detects how much is absorbed, which changes based on the level of oxygen in your blood. The device then calculates your oxygen saturation level and displays it on the screen.
