reading
The pulse amplitude indicator shows the quality of the SpO
2
signal. Since it is
derived from the patient’s plethysmograph signal, it varies with the pulse of the
patient. If the patient has a very low signal the pulse amplitude indicator does not
vary through its full range. If the signal is noisy, the pulse amplitude indicator does
not vary rhythmically with the pulse.
