ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for calibrating a pulse oximeter which can improve the repetitivity of measured values for calibration tests and which can calibrate the pulse oximeter with a high reliability. A tissue model having a light-absorbing characteristic approximated to that of the tissue of a living body is inserted into a space between a light-emitting section and a light-receiving section of a measuring probe that is connected to the pulse oximeter, and a blood model having a light-absorbing characteristic that is approximated to that of the blood is moved within the tissue model so as to enter into or exit from the space between the light-emitting section and the light-receiving section.
