The BCI 3078 ear clip SpO2 sensor is a reusable adult pulse oximetry probe that clips onto the earlobe to measure oxygen saturation (SpO2) and pulse rate.
It is built to the BCI 3078 / WW3078 reference specifications with Smiths Medical BCI oximetry technology, a 1.0m (3.3 ft) cable and a 9-pin connector, and works with BCI, Smiths Medical and many other monitors that use BCI SpO2 technology.
Why Choose This BCI Ear Clip Pulse Oximeter Sensor?
- Earlobe measurement site ideal when finger readings are unreliable due to poor peripheral perfusion, cold hands, nail polish, tremor or hand injuries.
- Reusable and cost-effective designed for repeated clinical use with proper cleaning between patients.
- Spring-loaded ear clip gentle, secure contact on the earlobe for stable signals during spot checks and continuous monitoring.
- Direct 9-pin connection plugs straight into BCI-technology monitors and oximeters with a 9-pin SpO2 port.
- Quality assured

Clinical Use Cases
- Hospital wards, ICU and step-down units needing continuous adult SpO2 monitoring
- Operating rooms and PACU where finger access is limited
- Emergency departments and patient transport
- Sleep studies, respiratory therapy and outpatient clinics
- Patients with poor finger perfusion, peripheral vascular disease or hand trauma
Care and Maintenance
- Wipe the ear clip and cable with a soft cloth dampened with 70% isopropyl alcohol between patients.
- Do not immerse the sensor or connector in liquid, and do not autoclave.
- Avoid sharp bends or pulling on the cable; store loosely coiled.
- Reposition the clip regularly during extended monitoring to protect the skin.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the BCI 3078 SpO2 sensor?
The BCI 3078 is a reusable adult ear clip pulse oximetry sensor that measures SpO2 and pulse rate from the earlobe on monitors using BCI (Smiths Medical) SpO2 technology.
What connector does this ear clip sensor use?
It has a 9-pin connector that plugs directly into BCI-technology monitors and oximeters with a 9-pin SpO2 input.
How long is the cable?
The sensor cable is 1.0m (approximately 3.3 ft).
When should I use an ear clip instead of a finger sensor?
An ear clip is a good choice when finger perfusion is poor, hands are cold or injured, nail polish interferes, or the patient’s hands must stay free.
Is this sensor reusable?
Yes. It is designed for multi-patient use when cleaned and disinfected between patients according to your facility’s protocol.
