Pulse 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 کاملPulse oximetry in the oesophagus.
Pulse oximetry has been one of the most significant technological advances in clinical monitoring in the last two decades. Pulse oximetry is a non-invasive photometric technique that provides information about the arterial blood oxygen saturation (SpO(2)) and heart rate, and has widespread clinical applications. When peripheral perfusion is poor, as in states of hypovolaemia, hypothermia and va...
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 کاملRespiratory variations in pulse oximetry plethysmographic waveform amplitude to predict fluid responsiveness in the operating room.
BACKGROUND Respiratory variations in pulse oximetry plethysmographic waveform amplitude (DeltaPOP) are related to respiratory variations in pulse pressure (DeltaPP) and are sensitive to changes in preload. The authors hypothesized that DeltaPOP can predict fluid responsiveness in mechanically ventilated patients during general anesthesia. METHODS Twenty-five patients referred for cardiac surg...
متن کاملCerebral oximetry: a replacement for pulse oximetry?
Cerebral oximetry has been around for some 3 decades but has had a somewhat checkered history regarding application and reliability. More recently several monitors have been approved in the United States and elsewhere and the technique is emerging as a useful tool for assessing not only adequate cerebral oxygenation but also tissue oxygenation and perfusion in other organs.
