HISTORY
PHYSIOLOGICAL FUNDAMENTALS
• oxygen delivery is quantified as the product of arterial
oxygen content(CaO2) and cardiac output
CaO2= (1.34×SaO2×hb) + 0.0031×PaO2
• four species of hb in adult:
oxyhb(O2hb),deoxyhb(deO2hb),carboxyhb(COhb),methhb
• COhb(<1%-3%) and methb(<1%)
• functional oxygen saturation:
Oxyhb/deoxyhb+oxyhb ×100%
• efficient o2 transport- ability of hb to reversibly load nd
unload o2

APPLICATIONS
• 1.MONITORING OF OXYGENATION
-anesthesising areas
-post anesthesia care
-transport
-other intrahospital areas-PACU,ICU,during CPR,fetal
oxygenation,tonic clonic seizures pt-risk of hypoxic
cerebral brain damage
-out of hospital
-controlling o2 administration
-monitoring peripheral oxygenation(ortho and plastic
surgery)
-detemining systolic BP(more accurate in peds pts)-in pts
of pulseless diseases of extremities
-locating arteries
-other uses
1)high frequency jet ventilation,therapuetic brochoscopy,
can be combined with mixed venous hbO2
2)CHD in neonates
2. ANALYSIS OF PLETHYSMOGRAPH WAVEFORM

• impact of VT on pleth, bp
and ecg
• sudden reduction in the
amplitude of pulse
