Precautions during blood oxygen monitoring

Precautions during blood oxygen monitoring

1. The plug of the blood oxygen probe and the "blood oxygen" jack on the panel of the host must be inserted in place. Otherwise, the blood oxygen information may not be collected, and the blood oxygen value and pulse value may not be displayed.

2. The patient's nails should not be too long, with no stains, dirt or onychomycosis. If the patient’s finger feels uncomfortable after a long period of blood oxygen monitoring, another finger should be replaced for monitoring.

3. Patients and medical staff should not bump and pull the probe and lead to prevent damage and affect the use.

4. The blood oxygen probe should be placed separately from the blood pressure measuring arm, because when measuring blood pressure, the blood flow is blocked, and blood oxygen cannot be measured at this time, and the screen displays the words "Spo2 probe off".
