The X Series SpO
This chapter describes how to use the X Series unit to monitor Pulse CO-Oximetry (SpO
well as the optional features: SpCO, and SpMet, and SpHb, SpOC PVI, and PI.
The X Series pulse CO-Oximeter continuously and noninvasively measures the following at a
peripheral site, such as the foot, toe, or finger:
Oxygen saturation of arterial hemoglobin (SpO
•
Carboxyhemoglobin saturation (SpCO)
•
Methemoglobin saturation (SpMet)
•
Total Hemoglobin (SpHb)
•
Oxygen Content (SpOC)
•
Pleth Variability Index (PVI)
•
Perfusion Index (PI)
•
This monitoring gives information about the cardiac and respiratory systems, and provides
details of oxygen transportation in the body. It is widely used because it is noninvasive,
continuous, easily applied, and painless.
