Simultaneous Measurement of Oxygen and Carbon Monoxide Saturation using Pulse Oximeters
The ability of pulse oximeters to measure carboxyhemoglobin (HbCO) in blood or measure accurate values of oxygen saturation (SpO2) in the presence of elevated levels of HbCO is an important advantage because high exposure to carbon monoxide (CO) can be fatal or results in permanent neurological dama...
