Chapter 5 Measuring SpO
2
5.1 Introduction
The measurement of oxygen saturation of arterial blood (also known as
pulse oxygen saturation, usually shortened as SpO
2
) adopts the principles
of light spectra and volume tracing. The LED emits lights with two specific
wavelengths, which are selectively absorbed by oxygenated hemoglobin
and deoxyhemoglobin. The optical receptor measures the changes in the light
intensity after the light passes the capillary network and estimates the ratio of
oxygenated hemoglobin and the total hemoglobin.
Wavelengths of the light emitted by the pulse oximeter probe are nominally
660nm for red LED and 940nm for infrared LED.

Warning:
•
Use only SpO
2
sensors specified in this manual. Follow
the SpO
2
sensor’s instructions for use and adhere to all
warnings and cautions.
•
When a trend toward patient deoxygenation is indicated,
blood samples should be analyzed by a laboratory
co-oximeter to completely understand the patient’s
conditions.
•
Do not use the monitor and the SpO
2
sensor during
magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Induced current could
cause burns.
•
Prolonged continuous monitoring may increase the risk
of unexpected changes in skin characteristics, such as
irritation, reddening, blistering or burns. Inspect the sensor
site every two hours and move the sensor if the skin quality
changes. For neonates, or patients with poor peripheral
blood circulation or sensitive skin, inspect the sensor site
more frequently.
