Introduction Targeted oxygenation protocols in mechanically ventilated patients are critical in avoiding the deleterious effects of hypoxaemia and hyperoxaemia. Peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) is ...
Arterial blood gases (PaO2, SaO2) and pulse oximetery (SpO2) are helpful in determining the need for oxygen therapy. Although hypoxia is defined as PaO2 < 60 mmHg and SaO2 (SpO2) < 90%, oxygen should ...
Problem While SpO2 is a good approximation of SaO2 when saturation is above 90%, this is not necessarily the case at lower saturations (see for example Lebecque, 1991). It is also treated separately ...
