How does oxygen saturation measure hemoglobin?
Nov 23, 2022 · Oxygen saturation measures how much hemoglobin is bound to oxygen compared to how much hemoglobin remains unbound. At the molecular level, hemoglobin consists of 4 globular protein subunits. Each subunit is associated with a heme group.

Jun 11, 2023 · Oxygen saturation: The proportion of hemoglobin inside red blood cells that can bind oxygen. This generally means functional hemoglobin or functional arterial oxygen saturation. SaO 2 is arterial saturation measured by ABG.

Feb 24, 2023 · Functional oxygen saturation can be measured non-invasive by a pulse oximeter and is termed SpO2, or can be measured with a blood gas analysis by a co-oximeter and is termed SaO2 for arterial functional saturation, SvO2 for venous saturation, ScvO2 for central venous saturation an so on.
Aug 6, 2015 · Functional saturation (sO2) is the fraction of effective haemoglobin which is oxygenated. The fraction of oxygenated haemoglobin is a parameter that is calculated from values directly measured by absorption spectrophotometry. It is expressed as FO2Hb.
Jul 8, 2014 · Oxygen saturation in the arterial blood (SaO 2) provides information on the adequacy of respiratory function. SaO 2 can be assessed noninvasively by pulse oximetry, which is based on photoplethysmographic pulses in two wavelengths, generally in the red and infrared regions.

SO2 or ‘functional oxygen saturation’ – The fraction of effective hemoglobin (e.g. excluding Hb species like CO-Hb or met-Hb and only measures oxy- and deoxy-Hb). This is expressed as (HbO2/ [Hb+HbO2]). SpO2 – Functional, arterial oxygen saturation measured by pulse oximetry.
May 24, 2024 · Pulse oximetry uses spectrophotometry to determine the proportion of hemoglobin that is saturated with oxygen (ie, oxygenated hemoglobin; oxyhemoglobin) in peripheral arterial blood. Light at two separate wavelengths illuminates oxygenated and deoxygenated hemoglobin in blood.
