SPO2 Report Parameter Settings

Post by SuperGeeky » Tue Nov 17, 2009 10:38 am

What are the Industry Standards for setting the SPO2 Report Perameters.

The settings my Report Generator has are:

SP02

Drop for Event (%)
Minimum Event Duration (sec)
Desaturation Criteria Level (%)

Pulse Rate Parameters

Rate Change per Event
Minimum Event Duration (sec)

I assume these settings dictate what events are flagged in the reports. Can anyone elaborate on what flag events would be critical with OSA. Other than, your near Code Blue

Thanks so much,

Gratefully,

SG
