5 Monitoring SpO2

Pulse oximetry is a noninvasive method of continuously measuring oxygen

saturation (SpO2) in arterial blood. The resultant SpO2 reading indicates the

percentage of hemoglobin molecules in the arterial blood which are saturated

with oxygen. SpO2 monitoring is one of the tools available to assist in assess-

ing a patient’s cardiac and respiratory systems. This chapter explains how

pulse oximetry works and describes how to use the HeartStart XLT to monitor

SpO2.

SpO2 monitoring is always available in Manual Mode (if the option is pur-

chased). In AED Mode, SpO2 monitoring is only available if SpO2 is config-

ured to 2Q.

For information on printing, storing, and retrieving patient information

acquired while monitoring, see Chapter 9.

WARN ING Do not rely solely on SpO2 readings; assess the patient at all times. SpO2 readings

may be inaccurate in the presence of significant levels of carboxyhemoglobin or

methemoglobin, in patients with restricted blood flow to the extremities (such as

those in severe shock or hypothermia), or in the presence of excessive motion.
