Pulse Oximetry (SpO
Pulse Oximetry monitoring measures the oxygen saturation (SpO
peripheral site such as a finger or toe. If optional features SpCO and SpMet are installed, it also
monitors carboxyhemoglobin saturation (SpCO), and methemoglobin saturation (SpMet).
SpO monitoring determines the ratio of oxygenated hemoglobin to total hemoglobin in arterial

blood and displays this ratio as percent SpO
features SpCO and SpMet are installed, these values alternate and display as
under the SpO
plethysmograph in the waveform trace display area.

Monitoring Display Options

The Propaq MD unit gives you great flexibility in how you display a patient's vital signs
information. By pressing the Display/Home button (
successively display the patient's vital signs information in these three windows:
Waveform Display window, which initially displays an ECG waveform trace and numeric
•
displays for each monitoring function.
Trends Status window, which displays a report listing vital signs measurements that the
•
Propaq MD unit logs automatically, and the primary ECG waveform trace.
Large Numerics Display window, on which large numeric displays of all vital signs
•
measurements appear.
The Waveform Display window appears when you power on the Propaq MD unit. Initially, the
Waveform Display window displays a single ECG waveform trace. All other monitored values
appear in numeric display areas at the bottom of the screen:
