Age and seasons influence on at-home pulse oximetry results in children evaluated for suspected obstructive sleep apnea

Italian Journal of Pediatrics, 2017
Background Seasonal variability on obstructive sleep apnea has already been studied by polysomnography in children. Winter and spring season emerged as critical periods. No data are currently available for pulse oximetry performed at home. The aim of our

The value of peripheral perfusion index measurements for early detection of critical cardiac defects

Pediatrics and Neonatology, 2019
Background: Approximately 25% of congenital heart diseases (CHD) are estimated to be critical and require an intervention. In this study, we aimed to investigate the additional value of peripheral perfusion index (PPI) measurements to pulse oximetry ...

Non-Invasive Capnography Versus Pulse Oximetry for Early Detection of Respiratory Depression During Pediatric Procedural Sedation: A Prospective Observational Study

Children
Background/Objectives: Continuous ventilation monitoring during pediatric sedation is essential, as respiratory depression may occur silently and may not be detected promptly by conventional methods such as pulse oximetry.

(Mis) Using pulse oximetry: a review of pulse oximetry use in acute care medical wards

, 2002
Background: Nurses routinely use pulse oximetry (SpO2) monitoring equipment in acute care. Interpretation of the reading involves physical assessment and awareness of parameters including temperature, haemoglobin, and peripheral perfusion. However, there

Bypassing Heteronuclear MRI: Metal‐Free Organosilicon Nanotracers for Background‐Free Hotspot 1H Imaging on Clinical Hardware

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Organosilicon micelles enable background‐free molecular magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) while remaining fully compatible with standard proton (1H) hardware. By exploiting a spectrally silent 1H window at ∼0 ppm, the silicone nanotracer allows hotspot detection by 1H chemical‐shift imaging (CSI) without metals or heteronuclei, enabling direct overlay ...

CARBOXYHAEMOGLOBINAEMIA AND PULSE OXIMETRY

British Journal of Anaesthesia, 1991
We compared measurements obtained with a pulse oximeter (SpO2) against values obtained from a CO-oximeter in a patient with carbon monoxide poisoning. SpO2 was equal to the sum of the oxyhaemoglobin (HbO) and carboxyhaemoglobin (HbCO) values over the range of HbCO from 30 to 1%.
