Pulse oximetry in bronchiolitis: is it needed?
Infants admitted to health-care centers with acute bronchiolitis are frequently monitored with a pulse oximeter, a noninvasive method commonly used for measuring oxygen saturation. The decision to hospitalize children with bronchiolitis has been largely influenced by pulse oximetry, despite its questionable diagnostic value in delineating the severity of the illness. Many health-care providers ...
متن کاملContinuous Pulse Oximetry Monitoring in the Inpatient Population
John Smith is admitted late Monday afternoon to the post-surgical ward after a total knee replacement. John is overweight, though not morbidly obese, and has an undeclared history of snoring. He wakes up at 5:30 Tuesday morning with considerable pain; over the next hour he exhausts the opiate supply in his PCA pump, and his nurse inserts a new syringe before her shift ends at 7 a.m. It will be ...
متن کاملEvaluation and Improvement of Knowledge of Medical staff on Pulse Oximetry in Educational Hospitals
Background: Pulse Oximeter monitoring has become so common over previous decades that in some health care units, blood oxygen level is now considered as the fifth vital sign. However, it seems there is still some lack of knowledge and/or experience among medical staff operating pulse oximeter and interpreting its results. The aim of this study was to investigate and compare the knowledge on Pul...

متن کاملInfant home respiratory monitoring using pulse oximetry.
Respiratory rate (RR) is a valuable early marker of illness in vulnerable infants, but current monitoring methods are unsuitable for sustained home use. We have demonstrated accurate measurement of RR from brief recordings of pulse oximeter plethysmogram (pleth) trace in full-term neonates in hospital. This study assessed the feasibility of this method in preterm infants during overnight record...
