Inaccurate readings may result from :
- Nail-polish (colorimetric interference) or artificial nails
- High levels of dysfunctional hemoglobin (carboxyhemoglobin or methemoglobin)
- Intravascular dyes (indocyanine green or methylene blue)
- Bright light. If necessary, protect the sensor positioning area
- Excessive movement of the user
- Defibrillators and interference from high-frequency electrosurgical devices
- Venous pulse
- Placing the sensor on a user with a blood-pressure cuff, an arterial or intravascular catheter
- High blood pressure, severe vasoconstriction, acute anemia or hypothermia
- Heart failure
- Stress
- Poor pulse quality (low perfusion)
- Low level of hemoglobin.
3. INFORMATION
3.1. OXYGEN SATURATION (SPO2)
Oxygen saturation is the level of oxygen in red blood cells after they pass through the lungs.
Many factors can affect the affinity of haemoglobin for oxygen and decrease blood oxygen satu-
ration. A digital pulse oximeter is non-invasive and can help to monitor SpO
.
