The monitoring of oxygen saturation (SpO₂) and heart rate is critical for the effective management of animals under anesthesia and for those with respiratory or cardiovascular conditions. In veterinary practice, pulse oximeters specifically designed for pets are essential due to the anatomical and physiological differences between animals and humans. This paper introduces a pulse oximeter prototype tailored for cats and dogs, which addresses these unique challenges by accommodating the specific requirements of animal monitoring. Unlike standard human devices, which may not reliably capture accurate readings in animals due to smaller and irregular body parts, such as paws, ears, or tails, this veterinary pulse oximeter leverages improved sensor technology to ensure consistent and reliable performance across various body sites.
