What if I do not use Pulse Oximeter?

In general, the most accurate mean of measurement is by "Arterial Blood Gas". It will give you the exact content of oxygen inside the blood by means of the partial pressure. However, it requires a very expensive machine, which needs periodic calibration by medical technician. It also requires blood being taken from the artery (usually over the wrist or hip). The blood should then be chilled and rushed to the laboratory. Despite all the trauma, pain and inconvinence that it causes, it only gives you a spot check but not a continuous measurement.

Portable, Reliable & Cordless Pulse Oximeter
The pulse oximeter measures the saturation of hemoglobin with oxygen. It does not require a drop of blood. The whole procedure is painless. Strictly speaking, we do not expect you to be uncomfortable.

Application

Applicable fields and scenario
  • Any patient with cardio-respiratory disroder
  • Operation theatre
  • High dependence unit
  • Any nursing unit, including elderly home
  • Treatment room and endoscopy unit
  • Monitoring during patient transport
  • Chest physiotherapy, sputum suction body turning for paraplegic or tetraplegic patient
  • For patients on ventilator, CPAP machine and oxygen therapy

There is no contraindication

Potential hazard and complications

  • Using poor quality or malfunction oximeter can lead to tissue damage (e.g. electric shock or burn)
  • Prolong continuous use on paraplegic or tetraplegic patient can lead to pressure sore
The following factors can lead to inaccurancy
  • continuous motion of the limb
  • Abnormal hemoglobin e.g. Fetal hemoglobin, Carboxyhemolgobin, Methemoglobin
  • Intravascular contrast or dye
  • Poor circulation, e.g. hypovolemic shock, peripheral shutdown, peripheral vascular disease, Raynaud's phenomenon
  • Nail vanish and paint
  • Ambient ligh
  • When SpO2 is less than 70%, oximeter can no longer provide accurate value. Arterial blood gas should be utilised to judge the medical treatment
  • Hyperbilirubinemia might affect the reading
