A portable ultraviolet pulse oximeter sanitizer is a handheld unit that irradiates a pulse oximeter probe with ultraviolet light within a sealed sanitizing chamber. A main compartment section has one half of the sanitizing chamber, and a door section has the other half of the sanitizing chamber. A pulse oximeter probe may be clamped onto an attachment post within the sanitizing chamber. After the door is closed, a plurality of ultraviolet lamps within the sanitizing chamber are activated, irradiating the pulse oximeter probe with ultraviolet light. A battery provides electrical power to the ultraviolet lamps, and a timer automatically deactivates the ultraviolet lamps after a specified time period.
