Accuracy of Pulse Oximeters in Detecting Hypoxemia in Patients with Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension

PURPOSE: Pulse oximetry is routinely used to continuously and non-invasively monitor arterial oxygen saturation (SaO(2)). When oxygen saturation by pulse oximeter (SpO(2)) overestimates SaO(2), hypoxemia may be overlooked. We compared the SpO(2) - SaO(2) differences among three pulse oximeters in pa...
