Averaging
Time*
The length of time over which the
system calculates the average of all
data points.

* With FastSat the averaging time is dependent on the input signal.
** Defaults to 2-4 seconds when in Sleep Study mode. See

*** For the 2 and 4 second settings the averaging time may range from 2-4 and 4-6 seconds,
respectively.
FastSat Overview
FastSat enables rapid tracking of arterial oxygen saturation changes. Arterial oxygen
saturation data is averaged using pulse oximeter averaging algorithms to smooth the trend.
When Rad-97 is set to FastSat
On
, the averaging algorithm evaluates all saturation values,
providing an averaged saturation value that is a better representation of the patient’s current
oxygenation status. With FastSat set to On, the averaging time is dependent on the input
signal.
