How to Measure Blood Oxygen Saturation
If we hybra ventilate, the curve shifts to the left for a given partial pressure of oxygen. The reason that hemoglobin saturation has increased, our blood oxygen saturation has creased is because the hemoglobin is holding on to oxygen and is not releasing it. So s p o two is not perfectly accurate, but it's pretty good indicator. And gode mix it. Carbonit oxide builled up. You know, you go for a fast walk with your mouth closed, you feel an increased air hunger. The increased air hunger is telling you that carbon doxide is increased in the blood. I think it's a nice, interesting play like the understanding of carbon dioxide.
