Pulse Oximeter used to measure oxygen
saturation in the body i.e how much of the
hemoglobin in the blood is carrying the
oxygen.
Oxygen enters the lungs and then is passed
on into blood. The blood carries the oxygen
to the various organs in our body. The main
way oxygen is carried in our blood is by
means of hemoglobin.
Normal oxygen saturation values are 97% to 99% in
a healthy individual on room air.
Ratio of saturation:
 Pulse Oximetry consists of Red(R) and
Infrared(IR) light emitting LEDs and a photo
detector.
 Oxygenated and deoxygenated hemoglobin
have different light absorption rate.
• Oxygenated hemoglobin absorbs more infrared light
• Deoxygenated hemoglobin absorbs more red light
Finger is placed in between the light source
and the light detector. Non absorbed light by
finger reaches at detector.
Light is emitted from light sources which
goes across the pulse oximeter probe and
reaches the light detector.
The amount of light absorbed depends on
three physical properties:
1. concentration of the light absorbing
substance.
2. length of the light path in the absorbing
substance
3. oxyhemoglobin and deoxyhemoglobin
absorbs red and infrared light differently
Amount of light absorbed is proportional to
the concentration of the light absorbing
substance.
Amount of light absorbed is proportional to
the length of the light path.
oxyhemoglobin absorbs more infrared light
than red light & deoxyhemoglobin absorbs
more red light than infrared light.
Using this ratio, the pulse oximeter can then
work out the oxygen saturation.
