Pulse Oximetry Overestimates Oxygen Saturation in COPD.
BACKGROUND Measurement of oxygen saturation with a handheld pulse oximeter is widely practiced as a surrogate to invasive arterial blood gas analysis. Oxygen saturation is an important parameter in cases of COPD, but there are insufficient data on the role of pulse oximetry in patients with COPD, moreso in diseases across its spectrum, such as chronic bronchitis and emphysema. We assessed the p...
متن کاملPulse Oximetry
The principal advantage of optical sensors for medical applications is their intrinsic safety since there is no electrical contact between the patient and the equipment. (An added bonus is that they are also less suspect to electromagnetic interference). This has given rise to a variety of optical techniques to monitor physiological parameters: for example, the technique of Laser Doppler veloci...
متن کاملevaluation of oxygen saturation by pulse-oximetry in mouth breathing patients
mouth breathing might not always result in hypoxia, but can contribute to it. the aim of the present study was to determine the effect of mouth breathing on hypoxia. based on a pilot study, 323 patients with mouth breathing were selected. assessment of mouth breathing was based on clinical examination and questionnaires filled out by patients and their companions. the patients were also examine...
متن کاملPulse Oximetry
Introduction There is no doubt that pulse oximetry represents the greatest advance in patient monitoring in many years. It has the unique advantage of continuously monitoring the saturation of hemoglobin with oxygen, easily and noninvasively, providing a measure of cardio-respiratory function. By virtue of its ability to quickly detect hypoxaemia, it has become the standard of care during anaes...
متن کاملComparison of oxygen saturation by pulse oximetry and co-oximetry during exercise testing in patients with COPD.
INTRODUCTION Measurement of oxygen saturation by pulse oximetry (SpO2) is frequently performed during exercise testing of patients with COPD to monitor for hypoxemia. The purpose of this study was to assess the accuracy and precision of pulse oximetry during exercise. We hypothesized that the SpO2 would more closely reflect oxygen saturation as measured by co-oximetry (SaO2) when it was correct...
