4 Pulse oximetry technique Red IR Photodiode An automatic gain control (AGC) is implemented into the system as the AGC controls the intensity of the LEDs. This is required in order to keep the DC level constant regardless of the thickness of the finger. Ideally, when a thick finger is placed between the photodiode and the LEDs, the intensity of the LEDs incident onto the measuring surface will be brighter but with a thin finger, the input intensity will be dimmer.

6 Pulse oximetry limitations Red IR Photodiode Oxygen dissociation curve limits early detection of decreasing PaO2 when baseline is high Intravenous dyes (methylene blue, indocyanine green) can result in false low readings With 2 wavelength devices inaccuracy is increased carboxyhemoglobin and and methemoglobin Nail polish and skin pigmentation Ambient light (xenon light OR) 1.Anesthesiology 1986, 65: Acta Anaesthesiol Scand 1995, 89: Anesth Analg 1989, 67: Anesth Analg 1995, 81: J Clin Monit 1989, 5:

10 Comparison of two new generation pulse oximeters during emergency ambulance transportation Ulrike Weber, Elvira Tomschik, Irene Resch, Krista Adelmann, Matthias Hasun, Bruno Mora, Reinhard Malzer and Alexander Kober Eur J Anaesthesiol 2011;28:92 96 Table 3 Comparison of the two pulse oximeters all patients had vasoconstriction Radical 7 N 600 Significance BP > 100/60 Number of malfunctions per patient NS (minimum maximum) (0 1) (0 3) Mean duration per malfunction SD (s) NS Total number of malfunctions 3 3 BP 100/ NS Number of malfunctions per patient (minimum maximum) (0 4) (0 1) Mean duration per malfunction SD (s) NS Total number of malfunctions 8 4 All patients NS Number of malfunctions per patient (minimum maximum) (0 4) (0 3) Mean duration per malfunction SD (s) NS Total number of malfunctions 11 7 Conclusion Although number and duration of malfunctions did not differ significantly between the devices, they showed a very low number of malfunctions even in hypotensive patients with peripheral vasoconstriction. Oxygen saturation correlated significantly in the two devices investigated at time points. In addition, pulse rate also correlated significantly. The Masimo Radical 7 uses an algorithm that identifies the arterial signal in the presence of a non-arterial (venous) signal that occurs during motion The Nellcor N 600 attenuates incoming signals that do not occur synchronously with the average rhythm of the pulse rate and allows the parts of the waveform that are synchronous with the heart rate to remain unattenuated and, thus, contribute more to the calculated SpO2.

12 Knowledge about pulse oximetry among medical and nursing staff If a patient s saturation is unacceptably low, what are your immediate actions? - none would check airway, breathing or circulation - 10% of the nurses and 20% of the doctors would check the waveform - 50% of the doctors would order a blood gas analysis A patient with tension pneumothorax and central cyanosis is in the ED. The SpO2 on the monitor reads 100% What are the implications of this reading? - 87% of the doctors and 57% of the nurses would ignore the reading and treat on clinical signs What happens to the SpO2 reading right after cardiac arrest? - 7% of the nurses and 17% of the doctors correctly stated that as the pulseoximeter requires a pulsatile signal an alarm would sound - all the others thought the saturation would fall gradually or suddenly What happens to the SpO2 reading right after respiratory arrest? - 83% of the doctors and 63% of the nurses correctly answered that the saturation would fall until cardiac arrest occurred Lancet 1994, 344:
13 Pulse oximetry does the patient benefit? Red IR Photodiode Very obvious advantages of having an indicator of SaO2 When correctly understood the limitations of the technique may also contain important information No RCT in ICU patients Large RCT in surgery failed to prove benefit to patients although it increased confidence levels of health care workers and decreased the incidence of low SaO2 levels Continuous SpO2 monitoring when used on a postcardiac surgery floor was costeffective. It changed the reason for ICU admission but not the rate of ICU admission was. 1.Anesth Analg 2003;96: Anesth Analg 2006;102: Anesthesiology 1993;78:
14 venous oximetry technique The emitted light illuminates the blood within the vessel s lumen and is backscattered and refracted by the different blood cells and by the vessel s wall and absorbed by the hemoglobin. As for absorption during transmission spectrophotometry, the reflection characteristics of hemoglobin and oxyhemoglobin are a function of wavelength and oxygen saturation is assumed to be a function of the ratio of reflected light at different selected wavelengths.

28 Near InfraRed Spectroscopy technique With 4 wavelength probe: total hemoglobin, optical path length, and optical scattering have little effect Since signal intensity is inversely proportional to the square of the pathlength, 5 cm separation appears to be the functional maximal optode spacing. This provides a mean depth of NIR light penetration ~1.7 cm Journal of Biomedical Optics 10(3), (May/June 2005) Neuroimage 2006;29:
