Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of methemoglobinemia on pulse oximetry and mixed venous oximetry
TL;DR: Pulse oximetry data (SpO2) should be used with caution in patients with methemoglobinemia, and at high methemoglobin levels SpO2 tends to overestimate SaO2 by larger amounts at low hemoglobin saturations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of Motion on the Performance of Pulse Oximeters in Volunteers
Steven J. Barker,Nitin K. Shah +1 more
TL;DR: The mechanical motions used in this study significantly affected oximeter function, particularly when the sensors were connected during motion, which requires signal acquisition during motion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anesthesia for Thoracoscopic Laser Ablation of Bullous Emphysema
TL;DR: Ablation of bullae appears to provide symptomatic improvement, and thoracoscopy might be better tolerated than thoracotomy, especially in patients with severe bullous emphysema.
Journal ArticleDOI
Noninvasive monitoring of carbon dioxide: a comparison of the partial pressure of transcutaneous and end-tidal carbon dioxide with the partial pressure of arterial carbon dioxide.
TL;DR: PtcCO2 may be used to estimate PaCO2 with an accuracy similar to that ofPetCO2 in anesthetized patients, as there is a significant correlation between noninvasively monitored values and the blood gas values.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of anemia on pulse oximetry and continuous mixed venous hemoglobin saturation monitoring in dogs
TL;DR: The accuracy of pulse oximetry (for pulse hemoglobin oxygen saturation [SpO2]) and mixed venous oximetric (for mixed venus oxygen saturation] was assessed during progressive normovolemic anemia in dogs.
