The Effects of Motion on the Performance of Pulse Oximeters in Volunteers
Pulse oximetry is considered a standard of care in both operating rooms and post anesthetic care units. It is also widely used in critical care settings. Pulse oximeters may fail to provide valid SpO2 data in various situations. Motion artifact is a common cause of oximeter failure and loss of...
A Comparison of Nellcor N-395, N-595, and Masimo Radical Pulse Oximeters During Motion and Hypoxemia
Steven Barker, PhD, MD, had developed a standardized volunteer protocol that has been successfully used to compare the performance of many pulse oximeters during combined motion and hypoxemia. This laboratory protocol has yielded results that are consistent with those of published clinical studies. In the experiments presented here, these researchers...
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...
The Performance of Three Pulse Oximeters During Low Perfusion in Volunteers
In a recent study, we compared the performance of three current pulse oximeters during controlled hand motion in volunteers. The performance of the Masimo SET prototype was superior to both the Nellcor N-200 and Nellcor N-3000 OXISMART in terms of bias, precision, dropout rate, and alarm specificity. The present study...
The Impact of Motion and Low Perfusion on the Performance of Masimo SET Pulse Oximeter (PO) and Four other POs for Measurement of Oxygen Saturation (SpO2) and Pulse Rate (PR) in Human Volunteers
Since conventional pulse oximeters often display erroneous values, clinicians often rely on correlation between the ECG heart rate and the pulse oximeter's pulse rate to validate the SpO2 value. Thus pulse rate measured by pulse oximetry plays a significant role in the clinician's trust of the SpO2 value given by...
Performance Evaluation of Masimo SET Pulse Oximeter During Mild Hypothermic Cardiopulmonary Bypass
Masimo SET pulse oximetry has been shown to work at lower perfusion levels than conventional pulse oximeters. This group of researchers studied Masimo SET's ability to accurately measure arterial oxygen saturation compared to a conventional pulse oximeter during the hypoperfusion that occurs during cardiopulmonary bypass CPB. The Masimo SET pulse...
Performance of Motion-Resistant Pulse Oximeters in Tracking Neonatal Heart Rate Variability
Heart rate variability is routinely assessed in acutely ill neonates. ECG monitors have been the source of this parameter but a robust and responsive pulse oximetry pulse rate could suffice. In the presence of motion and low perfusion, older pulse oximeters can display erroneous pulse rate values. Although the newer...
Improved Detection of Obstructive Sleep Apneas-related Hypoxemia Using Masimo SET Pulse Oximetry in Children
Children with obstructive sleep apneas often present with short apneas-hypopneas OAH and periods of partial upper airway obstruction associated with hypoxemia. The number of hypoxemic episodes and the duration of these hypoxemic periods are indicators of the severity of sleep apnea. The researchers studied the OAH detection rate of three...
