ABSTRACT
COMPARISON OF TWO PULSE OXIMETERS DURING SUB-MAXIMAL EXERCISE IN HEALTHY VOLUNTEERS: EFFECTS OF MOTION. William Kist, Rosemary Hogan, Lorilie Weber-Hardy, Tarilyn Dobey, Kathryn Moss, Mark Wernsman, Marian Minor, Michael Prewitt. JEPonline. 2002;5(1):42-48. Exercise-induced motion artifacts can adversely affect the accuracy of Pulse oximeters (OX) for measurements of arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2) and pulse rate (PR). The purpose of this study was to compare the SaO2 and PR measurements at rest and during exercise from two new motion-resistant OX; the Oxi-Reader® and N-395®. Ten apparently healthy subjects volunteered for this study. Subjects were connected simultaneously to both OX and underwent a 16 min sub-maximal exercise treadmill test, including 2 min of standing rest (no motion) at the beginning and conclusion of the test. SaO2 values less than 92%, or exercise SaO2 values which decreased 4% from the mean rest SaO2 value, and PR values 20 b/min less than the preceding min of progressive workload exercise were considered errors. Results revealed statistically significant (p ................
