Monitoring This chapter explains how to use the pulse oximeter feature of the HP CodeMaster 100. monitoring gives information on both cardiac and respiratory systems, and details of oxygen transportation in the body. It is widely used because it is non-invasive, continuous, easily applied and painless.
Understanding Pulse Oximetry What is SpO A blood-oxygen saturation reading indicates the percentage of hemoglobin molecules in the arterial blood which are saturated with oxygen. The reading is referred to as SpO . Readings vary from 0 to 100%. Normal readings in a healthy adult, however, range from 94% to 100%.
The patient must have at least a minimum pulse. The light emitter and the photodetector must be opposite each other. Operating Controls The SpO operating controls on the HP CodeMaster 100 SpO Operating Controls are detailed in “SpO2 Operating Controls” on page 1-13 Patient Monitor Using SpO...
