Pulse Oximetry

Anesthesiology, 1989
The pulse oximeter, a widely used noninvasive monitor of arterial oxygen saturation, has numerous applications in anesthesiology and critical care. Although pulse oximetry is considered sufficiently accurate for many clinical purposes, there are significant limitations on the accuracy and availability of pulse oximetry data.

Pulse Oximetry

International Anesthesiology Clinics, 1987
The pulse oximeter provides a noninvasive, continuous, and generally valid measure of SaO2. Armed with a basic understanding of its operating principles and limitations, and the proper interpretation of SaO2, the emergency physician will find the pulse oximeter to be a useful instrument for the detection of hypoxia in infants and children.

Correlation of Pulse Oximetry and Co-oximetry

Dimensions of Critical Care Nursing, 1997
Pulse oximetry is an important advancement in noninvasive monitoring and assessment of arterial blood oxygenation. The purpose of this study was to assess the correlation of arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2) and pulse oximetry (SpO2) in critically ill patients using the ear and finger probes.

Pulse Oximetry

Critical Care Nursing Clinics of North America, 1999
Pulse oximetry is one of the most commonly applied technologies in acute and critical care. It has the potential to continuously monitor pulmonary function, avoid unnecessary blood gases, and alert clinicians to hypoxemic events that are not readily apparent by physical assessment. Due to these advantages, pulse oximetry has a firm place in health care.

Venous oximetry

Current Opinion in Critical Care, 2006
Mixed venous and central venous oxygen saturations reflect the balance between oxygen requirement and oxygen delivery, and thus may be used to assess the adequacy of tissue oxygenation. This review discusses recent data on the impact of using venous oximetry by obtaining mixed venous oxygen saturation or central venous oxygen saturation as useful ...

Pulse oximetry

Current Opinion in Internal Medicine, 2006
Pulse oximetry is now a ubiquitous and essential tool of modern medicine, and while it is a relatively recent invention, the technology has rapidly matured since the first commercially available oximeters were introduced in the 1970s. This review seeks to provide an overview of the basic physical operation of the probe and discuss its limitations ...

Pulse Oximetry

2005
The pulse oximeter is a device for non-invasive, continuous measurement of oxygen saturation. As such it is arguably one of the most important intraoperative monitors at the disposal of anaesthetists, and efforts are being made to make pulse oximeters available at all operating locations throughout the world [Walker et al. 2009].
