oximeter readings
What oximeter range is considered to be in normal range?
Just got new oxi, and pulse finger meter cms50d, would it show AFIB?

Re: oximeter readins
Normal O2 while sleeping is above 90%. Normal while awake is above 95%.
Afib shows up as an erratic rhythm. If your normal heart rate is say around 60 BPM and you see spikes in that up to 100 BPM or higher, you may be experiencing a very vivid dram or are showing some signs of heart rhythm problems.

SpO2 96+% and holding...
Re: oximeter readins
Actually 88 is usually considered to be the low end, as long as it doesn't go on for an extended time.

Re: oximeter readins
Thanks all, I should have mentioned that the device is only two days old,in that time with several short testing, my ox meter showed 90 one time 93 another, Also I am being treated for AFIB, I will hook it up to Sleepy Heads program shortly.

Re: oximeter readins
do you have the d, or d+ the d+ can import into SH directly. the D can't, because it doesn't record.Hurricane wrote:Thanks all, I should have mentioned that the device is only two days old,in that time with several short testing, my ox meter showed 90 one time 93 another, Also I am being treated for AFIB, I will hook it up to Sleepy Heads program shortly.

Re: oximeter readins
92% should be the lowest, according to the oxygen-hemoglobin dissociation curve. Any lower begins a steep descent, not to mention that pulse oximeters have a plus/minus 3% accuracy rate. Some physicians will say they are comfortable with 88 or 90% but that is not based on science.

for what it's worth, the cardiologist for my friend who has congestive heart failure said he wanted to make sure that my friends SpO2 was over 89%.Matt00926 wrote:92% should be the lowest, according to the oxygen-hemoglobin dissociation curve..

Re: oximeter readins
Almost every doctor/RT/practice/hospital will tell you a different number and have different protocols. Unfortunately I've tested this theory out by being in-patient and out-patient in multiple states .palerider wrote:for what it's worth, the cardiologist for my friend who has congestive heart failure said he wanted to make sure that my friends SpO2 was over 89%.Matt00926 wrote:92% should be the lowest, according to the oxygen-hemoglobin dissociation curve..
Regardless it is fact that the pulse ox is not 100% accurate (not that ANYTHING is of course). Most studies show +/ 2-3% error rate. So if you are sitting at 89% you could actually be at 86% or 92%. As always when it comes to health, I would advise to error on the side of caution!

Re: oximeter readins
What is the definiton of basal Spo2? Anyone have a generally accepted definition in reference to the CMS 50 series of pulse ox's?
Is was not in the software manual, which BTW, is very helpful: http://www.coopermedical.com/themes/def ... manual.pdf

I think basal SpO2 is the lowest natural oxygen saturation reading recorded outside of specific events like hypopneas.tedburnsIII wrote:What is the definiton of basal Spo2? Anyone have a generally accepted definition in reference to the CMS 50 series of pulse ox's?

ok, cool, I just didn't want you to end up disappointed after all the talk about how to import the dataHurricane wrote:Palerider,

I appreciate your answer but I am looking for an authoritative definition from a reliable source.

Perhaps Contec or Cooper Medical will have its own definition related to its software. I was surprised that it was omitted from the software manual.
As an aside, my CMS50D+, according to the manual, is accurate +/- 2%.

Re: oximeter readings
Basal SpO2 is the average SpO2 during non event times.
