Perfusion Index - A Valuable Tool to Assess Changes in Peripheral Perfusion Caused by Sevoflurane
The forearm-fingertip temperature gradient is regularly used to assess arterio-venous shunt thermoregulatory vasomotion of patients undergoing anesthesia. These researchers, however, believed that the forearm-fingertip temperature gradient might not be sensitive enough to reflect - accurately and in real time - changes in peripheral perfusion. These researchers were particularly interested in...
Novel Concept of Measuring Percutaneous Oxygen Saturation Monitor during Cardio-Pulmonary Bypass
During cardiopulmonary bypass CPB, oxygenation is often only intermittently monitored via arterial blood gas analysis ABG. CPB may not generate sufficient pulsations for pulse oximetry to work continuously. These researchers studied the use of external oscillations to produce accurate SpO2 measurements during CPB. Sampling of ABG every 30 minutes is...
Comparison of Two New Generation Pulse Oximeters: The Masimo Radical and the Philips Viridia
"Next generation" pulse oximeters claim motion and low perfusion tolerance. In the NICU, where pulse oximetry has been useful in preventative protocols, as well as, for the detection of life-threatening oxygenation events, the combined effects of low perfusion, motion, and unpredictable interference levels still challenge some pulse oximeters' ability to...
Major Reduction in Alarm Frequency With a New Pulse Oximeter
In general, intensive care monitor alarms are a major burden on both nurses and patients. Between 44% and 63% of alarms are caused by pulse oximeters, with 94% of these being non-significant. The high percentage of false alarms can result in potential delays in response or ignoring the alarms completely....
Improved Pulse Oximeter Technology Changes Caregiver Practice Patterns: Masimo SET vs. Conventional Pulse Oximetry
Monitors provide data upon which decisions about patient care are based. ICU practice patterns have been based largely upon the technology incorporated in monitoring systems. Using the Masimo SET pulse oximeter these researchers sought to test the hypothesis that improved technology would change clinicians' practice patterns. Their data supports the...
More Reliable Oximetry Improves Caregiver Efficiency
The researcher's hypothesis was that monitors requiring frequent attention to maintain or verify their accuracy would divert caregivers from other tasks, decreasing efficiency, and increasing cost of care. Likewise, improved monitor accuracy should improve caregiver efficiency and this improvement should be measurable. The percent of Non-Functional Time NFT for the...
