Pulse oximetry is a noninvasive method to measure oxygen saturation levels using light absorption. It works by shining light through tissue at red and infrared wavelengths. Oxyhemoglobin absorbs more infrared light while deoxyhemoglobin absorbs more red light. This principle allows pulse oximeters to calculate oxygen saturation. Pulse oximetry is widely used to monitor oxygenation during anesthesia, critical care, and emergencies. It provides early warning of hypoxemia before other signs. However, normal readings must be interpreted in context of a patient's complete blood count and hemoglobin levels.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

3. Introduction
• The maintenance of optimal O2 delivery is the
core concern during anaesthesia
• “Oxygen lack not only stops the machine but
wrecks the machinery ”– J.S. Haldane.
• Monitoring of oxygenation using
pulseoximeter avoids many catastrophies
4. DEFINITION
• Pulse oximetry, sometimes called the fifth vital
sign, is a noninvasive method of measuring
hemoglobin saturation (SpO2) by using a light
signal transmitted through tissue
• A low SpO2 can provide warning of hypoxemia
before other signs such as cyanosis or a change in
heart rate are observed
5. HISTORY
• MATHEES- father of oximetry
• 20 papers in1934 –1944
• HERTZMAN 1937 –use of photoelectric finger
plethsmography
• 1975 –concept of pulse oximetry –Japan
• YELDERMAN &NEW -1983 –Nellcor pulse
oximeter
6. Continuation…
• The American Society of Anesthesiologists
(ASA) and American Association of Nurse
Anesthetists have made assessment of
oxygenation a standard for intraoperative
and postoperative monitoring. In 2005, an
audible alarm for the pulse oximeter was
added to the ASA monitoring standard
7. PRINCIPLES
• ABSORBTION SPECTRO PHOTOMETRY
• BEER LAMBERT LAW
• LAMBERT’S LAW states that when a light falls on a
homogenous substance,intensity of transmitted light
decreases as the distance through the substance increase
• BEER’S LAW states that when a light is transmitted
through a clear substance with a dissolved solute ,the
intensity of transmitted light decreases as the concentration
of the solute increases
8. CONTD..
• Substances have a specific pattern of absorbing
specific wavelength –Extinction coefficient
Uses two lights of wavelengths
• 660nm –deoxy Hb absorbs ten times as oxy hb
• 940 nm – absorption of oxyHb is greater
• Lab oximeters use 4 wavelengths to measure 4
species of haemoglobin
• It=I oe–Ecd
[Ecd –absorbance]
10. DESIGN OF PULSEOXIMETER
• 2 WAVELENGTHS-
660nm [red] & 940nm[infra red]
The ratio of absorbencies at these two wavelengths is
calibrated empirically against direct measurements of
arterial blood oxygen saturation (Sa
O2
) in volunteers, and the
resulting calibration algorithm is stored in a digital
microprocessor within the pulse oximeter.
• LED & PHOTODETECTOR
• Newer types of LED is based on aluminium gallium
arsenide system
• Signal processed in the micro processor
• Senses only the pulsatile flow
11. Operating principles
• The pulse oximeter estimates SpO2 from the
differential absorption of red and infrared
light in tissue . Reduced hemoglobin
absorbs more light in the red band than
oxyhemoglobin .Oxyhemoglobin absorbs
more light in the infrared band.
13. Continuation….
• Reflectance oximetry relies on light that is
reflected (backscattered) to determine
oxygen saturation
• Reflection originates from nonhomogeneity
in the optical path, that is, at the interfaces
between materials with different reflective
indices
14.
15.
16. Oxygen desaturation
• Saturation is defined as ratio of O2 content
to oxygen capacity of Hb expressed as a
percentage.
• Desaturation leads to Hypoxemia – a
relative deficiency of O2 in arterial blood.
PaO2 < 80mmHg – hypoxemia
17. CONTD…
• Oxygen saturation will not decrease until
PaO2 is below 85mmHg.
• At SaO2 of 90% PaO2 is already 60mmHg.
• Rough guide for PaO2 between saturation
of 90%-75% is PaO2 = SaO2 - 30.
• SaO2< than 76% is life threatening.
18. Fractional Saturation
• This is Ratio of oxygenated Haemoglobin to
sum of all haemoglobin in blood.
Fractional saturation = HbO2
-
--------------------------
HbO2+ Hb+ Met Hb +CO Hb
19. Functional Saturation
• This is a measure of ratio between HbO2 and
sum of oxygenated and reduced Hb.
• Functional Saturation= HbO2
------------
HbO2 + Hb
20. Types of Hypoxemia
1.Hypoxic hypoxemia
↓ PaO2 ↓ SaO2 – Normal Hb
2.Anaemic hypoxemia
↓Hb , Normal PaO2 & SaO2
3.Toxic hypoxemia
↓SaO2,Normal PaO2
21. • PaO2 [mmHg] SaO2 [%]
• Normal 97 to ≥80 97 to ≥95
• Hypoxia < 80 < 95
• Mild 60-79 90-94
• Moderate 40 – 59 75 – 89
• Severe <40 < 75
22. physiology
• Efficient oxygen transport relies on the
ability of hemoglobin to reversibly load and
unload oxygen. The relationship between
oxygen tension and oxygen binding is seen
in the oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve
which plots the hemoglobin oxygen
saturation against the oxygen tension.
23. Relationship between PaO2 and
SaO2
• Oxygen – haemoglobin dissociation curve
The sigmoid shape of the curve is essential for
physiologic transport
26. Uses of pulseoximetry
• Monitoring oxygenation
During anaesthesia
in ICU, PACU
during transport
• Monitoring oxygen therapy
• Assesment of perfusion
• Monitoring vascular volume
• Sleep studies -24-h ambulatory recordings of SpO2 is
useful for screening for daytime sleep sequelae associated
with the potential risk of this pathology in OSAS during
social activities.
27. Continu…
• Emergency department
• Reflectance pulse oximeters can be useful
for assessing fetal status during labor and
delivery by applying a forehead probe
28. Continuatio…
• Pulse oximetry has been used during
cardiopulmonary resuscitation .Because of
artifacts and lag times, it is more useful in
primary respiratory arrest than in cardiac
arrest. It is useful in assessing oxygenation
during newborn resuscitation
29. • Out-of-hospital Use
Pulse oximetry is useful in the prehospital
setting, including when transporting
patients by helicopter or ambulance
Controlling Oxygen Administration
30. Monitoring Peripheral
Circulation
• Pulse oximetry can detect arm positions that
compromise circulation .The pulse oximeter
that is attached to a toe can help to warn of
decreased perfusion at the foot in patients in
the lithotomy position

37. Limitations
Shivering patient -motion artefacts
High intensity ambient light
Perfusion of the patient
ear probe may be more reliable
Abnormal pulses –erratic perfomance
Penumbra effect
- light shunted directly to photo dectector
38. Contd…
Carboxy Hb – Produces SpO2 > than true O2
saturation
10-20% in heavy smokers
At 660nm its absorbtion similar to
oxyhaemoglobin ,so over reads
For every 1%COHB 1% increase in
pulseoximeter reading
Methaemoglobinemia – absorbs equal
amount of red &infra red light - Cause SpO2
to move towards 85%
39. Endo / exogenous dyes interfere
-Indocyanine green, indigocarmine
,methylene blue
Blue ,Black ,Green nail polishes
Diathermy leads to disturbance in monitor
- can be corrected by placing
grounding plate near surgical field
probe as far away from surgical field
& electro cautery
CONTD….
41. Other types of oximetry
• Reflectance oximetry
sense back scattered light
LED placed to the side of photo diode
Dis adv - noise interference & more costly
Adv - signal in low perfusion is better
42. Contd…
Masimo signal extraction technology
Mixed venous blood o2 saturation

- sensor in forehead emits light of specific
wavelength & measure the reflected light
Transcutaneous oximetry
44. Other sites
• Pharyngeal pulse oximetry by using a pulse
oximeter attached to a laryngeal mask may
be useful in patients with poor peripheral
perfusion
45. continua
• Flexible probes may work through the
palm, foot, penis, ankle, lower calf, or even
the arm in infants
46. Contin…
• Pulse oximetry may be used to monitor fetal
oxygenation during labor by attaching a
reflectance pulse oximetry probe to the
presenting part A disadvantage is that the
probe has to be placed blindly and may be
positioned over a subcutaneous vein or
artery, which will affect the reliability of the
readings .
47. fixation
• Proper probe placement is crucial for good
performance. A malpositioned probe can
result in false-positive and false-negative
alarms
• The probe should be protected from bright
light
48. Patient Complications
• Corneal Abrasions
• Pressure and Ischemic Injuries
• Burns
• Electric Shock
• Carbon Monoxide Monitoring
49. Oxymetry standards
• There must be a means to limit the duration
of continuous operation at temperatures
above 41°C.
• The accuracy must be stated over the range
of 70% to 100% SpO2. If the manufacturer
claims accuracy below 65%, the accuracy
must be stated over the additional range.
50. Continu…
• If the manufacturer claims accuracy during
motion, this and the test methods used to
establish it must be disclosed in the
instructions for use.
• If the manufacturer claims accuracy during
conditions of low perfusion, this and the
test methods used to establish it must be
disclosed in the instructions for use.
.
51. Continuatio…
• There must be an indication when the SpO2
or pulse rate data is not current.
• An indication of signal inadequacy must be
provided if the SpO2 or pulse rate value
displayed is potentially incorrect
52. Continuation…
• If the pulse oximeter is provided with any
physiologic alarm, it must be provided with
an alarm system that monitors for
equipment faults, and there must be an
alarm for low SpO2 that is not less than 85%
SpO2 in the manufacturer-configured alarm
preset. An alarm for high SpO2 is optional.
53. Take home message
• Remember at SaO2 of 90%, PaO2 is
already 60mmHg
• SaO2 < than 76% is life threatening
55. Case Study
• Consider Mrs. W., a patient scheduled to undergo an
endoscopy. A complete blood count (CBC) shows her
total hemoglobin level is normal – 15 mg/dl. A pulse
oximeter shows that her oxygen saturation level is
97%.
• To determine her overall oxygen-carrying capacity,
multiply 1.34 ml (the amount of oxygen each gram of
hemoglobin carries) by the hemoglobin level and then
by the SpO2
. 1.34 x 15 x 0.97.
• The total amount of oxygen carried in Mrs. W.’s
hemoglobin is 19.50 ml/dl (hemoglobin oxygen content),
which falls within the normal range of 19-20 ml/dl.
56. Contd…
• Mr. B., who’s had shortness of breath for two days.
His lungs are clear, and although he has not specific
pulmonary symptoms, he looks malnourished and is
anaemic.
• A spot check with a pulse oximeter shows a SpO2
of
97%, the same as Mrs. W., you discover that Mr. B.’s
hemoglobin oxygen content is 14.30 ml/dl, far below
normal values.
• Because Mr. B. has fewer hemoglobin molecules, the
total amount of oxygen available to his tissues is low,
resulting in shortness of breath. What hemoglobin he
does have is full of oxygen, producing normal and
misleading SpO2
.
57. • These two cases illustrate a major
cautionary note: Never let normal
SpO2
readings lull you into a false
sense of security! Always interpret
SpO2
values in the context of the
patient’s total hemoglobin level.
