2. Oxygen saturation (medicine) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen_saturation_(medicine)

   Venous oxygen saturation (SvO 2) is the percentage of oxygenated hemoglobin returning to the right side of the heart. It can be measured to see if oxygen delivery meets the tissues' demands. SvO 2 typically varies between 60% and 80%. [9] A lower value indicates that the body is in lack of oxygen, and ischemic diseases occur.

3. Oxygen saturation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen_saturation

   Oxygen saturation (symbol SO 2) is a relative measure of the concentration of oxygen that is dissolved or carried in a given medium as a proportion of the maximal concentration that can be dissolved in that medium at the given temperature.

4. Desaturation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desaturation

   Desaturation may refer to: In pulse oximetry, the condition of a low blood oxygen concentration; Reduction of colorfulness in image processing; Conversion of a saturated compound into an unsaturated compound by a removal of two hydrogen molecules and the creation of a double bond

5. Pulse oximetry - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse_oximetry

   A pulse oximeter probe applied to a person's finger. A pulse oximeter is a medical device that indirectly monitors the oxygen saturation of a patient's blood (as opposed to measuring oxygen saturation directly through a blood sample) and changes in blood volume in the skin, producing a photoplethysmogram that may be further processed into other measurements. [4]

6. Hypoxemia - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypoxemia

   Hypoxemia is usually defined in terms of reduced partial pressure of oxygen (mm Hg) in arterial blood, but also in terms of reduced content of oxygen (ml oxygen per dl blood) or percentage saturation of hemoglobin (the oxygen-binding protein within red blood cells) with oxygen, which is either found singly or in combination. [2] [5]

8. Apnea–hypopnea index - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apnea–hypopnea_index

   Combining AHI and oxygen desaturation gives an overall sleep apnea severity score that evaluates both the number of sleep breathing disruptions and the degree of oxygen desaturation (low oxygen level in the blood) during said disruptions. The AHI is calculated by dividing the number of apnea events by the number of hours of sleep.
