Brit.

/ɒkˈsɪmᵻtə/, U.S.

/ɑkˈsɪmədər/

Forms: 1800s– oximeter, 1800s– oxymeter.

Origin: Formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: oxy- comb. form², -meter comb. form².

Etymology: < oxy- comb. form² (see forms at that entry) + -meter comb. form²; compare -imeter comb. form.

1. An instrument for measuring concentrations of gaseous or dissolved oxygen; a eudiometer.
