Used for yourself at home? If looking at it for work, you should actually talk to your employeer first because liability would be strenuously placed on you if you trusted your own untested equipment vs the hospital tested equipment.

Just do a google search, and you will find more than enough on pulse-oximeters.

Buying a pulse ox for home use is one thing, but I wouldn't do it for work.

If you bring in your own stuff, you take the pressure off the hospital to provide adequate equipment. (Your co-workers will just love you for that!) Then let one thing go wrong and they'll be all over your case liability-wise.

That's not even mentioning that unless you're planning on wearing the thing around your neck, it could easily go missing.

Thank you. It will be a home usage equipment. I have found a really cheap one from craigslist.org. If anyone want one, let me know and I'll try to get a deal for purchasing more than one.
