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 ...

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

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.

Pulse oximetry

Nursing Standard, 2008
Pulse oximetry is a widely used, non-invasive technique for assessing arterial oxygenation by measuring oxygen saturation in peripheral blood vessels. It is a simple technique, but needs to be carried out with care to obtain reliable results. This article provides guidance on the safe use of pulse oximetry and identifies some of the advantages and ...

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

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].

Continuous intra-arterial oximetry, pulse oximetry, and co-oximetry during cardiac surgery

Journal of Cardiothoracic and Vascular Anesthesia, 1992
This study evaluated arterial catheter oximetry versus pulse oximetry in eight patients (ASA III-IV) who underwent cardiac surgery. Co-oximeter saturation values served as the standard. Arterial oxygen saturation was determined simultaneously with these three methods at 162 prospectively defined points of measurement before, during, and after ...

MIXED VENOUS OXIMETRY

International Anesthesiology Clinics, 1989
We now have the technology through reflectance spectrophotometry to evaluate and display continuously mixed venous oxygen saturation SvO2 through use of a modified pulmonary artery catheter. Adding this method of assessing the balance of oxygen supply and demand to our standard armamentarium of hemodynamic monitoring may improve our ability to diagnose

Pulseless Pulse Oximetry

Chest, 2015
We read with great interest the article by Aldrich et al 1 in this issue of CHEST (see page 1484 ). In 2003, we reported our trial of measuring noninvasive arterial saturation during a pulseless situation (cardiopulmonary bypass [CPB]) by inducing a simulated pulse.

Fetal pulse oximetry

Current Opinion in Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 1998
Within the last ten years several groups adapted pulse oximetry to be used in the fetus. The obvious advantage of this technology is the fact that a biochemical parameter--the arterial oxygen saturation--can be measured continuously during delivery. Nevertheless, the continuous information about the fetal oxygenation during delivery has a couple of ...
