SpO2 Monitoring SpO Monitoring 2 A pulse oximeter is a noninvasive device that indicates the oxygen saturation (SpO ) of arterial blood. This measurement is obtained through a probe that 2 directs red and near infrared light through arterial beds. Hemoglobin absorbs these lights differently when it is bound with oxygen. Pulse oximetry mea- sures this difference and translates the measurement into a saturation percent- age that is displayed as an SpO reading. 2 Indications SpO monitoring is in
