A study on inter-finger variation and hand dominance in peripheral capillary oxygen saturation values recorded from the different fingers of the hands by pulse oximetry

Aim and Objectives: Our study aims at providing comparison of peripheral capillary blood oxygen saturation of hemoglobin (SpO2 values) among every finger of the two hands in healthy subjects with different hand dominance. After collecting different relevant demographic parameters such as age, sex, h...

Summary:Aim and Objectives: Our study aims at providing comparison of peripheral capillary blood oxygen saturation of hemoglobin (SpO2 values) among every finger of the two hands in healthy subjects with different hand dominance. After collecting different relevant demographic parameters such as age, sex, height, weight, noninvasive blood pressure, heart rate, body temperature and fasting period, SpO2 values were recorded from every finger of two hands with the same pulse oximeter. [2] To measure tissue oxygenation and peripheral capillary oxygen saturation (SpO2), pulse oximeter is a simple and reliable tool apart from invasive gold standard arterial blood gas (ABG) analyzer. [...]due to increased PI, it shows higher recorded SpO2as studied by modified Allen's test.
