Pulse Oximetry
- The above test is performed with the well-known oximeter, just place the oximeter on your finger
- Within a few seconds the oximeter will measure the pulse and the oxygen saturation of hemoglobin (SPO2)
- Basic requirements for a reliable measurement are that the fingers are clean, the nail is not painted, and it is not after intense physical exercise
- For use, it is recommended to use the middle finger due to the larger application surface on the reading sensor
How does the oximeter work?
- The oximeter features a microprocessor and consists of a diode lamp and a photodetector placed directly opposite each other. The diode lamp emits red light at 660 nm (red region) and infrared light at 940 nm (infrared region).
- Hemoglobin, when bound to oxygen (oxyhemoglobin), changes its form and absorbs light of a different wavelength than hemoglobin that is not bound to oxygen (reduced hemoglobin). Oxyhemoglobin absorbs in the infrared region and reduced hemoglobin in the red region. Thus, the percentage of hemoglobin bound to oxygen is determined.
- Normal values are equal to or greater than 95%.
- It is worth noting that during intense exercise, a 5% drop in saturation is often normal; however, in such cases, it is advisable to consult your doctor.
- Falsely reduced SPO2 is observed when there is low perfusion (Systolic pressure <80 mmHg), severe anemia (HCT<20%), and hypothermia. Additionally, it can be falsely reduced with nail polish, especially blue, green, and black.
