2. Overview
The peripheral capillary oxygen saturation (SpO2) is the percentage of oxyhemoglobin (HbO2) in the
total hemoglobin (Hb) in the blood, or the oxygen concentration in the blood. It is an important bio-
parameter for respiration. A number of diseases relating to the respiratory system may cause a decrease
of SpO2in the blood. Furthermore, some other causes such as the malfunction of the body's self-
adjustment, damage during surgery, and injuries caused by some medical examinations could also lead to
a low oxygen supply in the human body. As a consequence, symptoms such as vertigo, impotence and
vomiting would appear. Serious symptoms might endanger the patient’s life. Therefore, prompt
information of patients' SpO2is of great help for doctors to discover potential dangers and is of great
importance in the clinical medical field.
The Pulse Oximeter features a small size, low power consumption, convenient operation and portability.
The patient only needs to put one of their fingers into a probe for diagnosis and a display screen will
directly show the measured value of pulse oxygen saturation with high accuracy.
2.1. Features

9
TORONTEK-E400 Pulse Oximeter

pressure cuff, or receiving intravenous injection.
D. Do not fix the SpO2sensor with adhesive or else it may result in venous pulsation and
inaccurate measure of the SpO2 and pulse rate.
E. Excessive ambient light may affect the measuring result. This includes fluorescent lamps, dual
ruby lights, infrared heaters, direct sunlight etc.
F. Strenuous action of the patient or extreme electrosurgical interference may also affect accuracy.
G. Patient cannot use nail enamel or other makeup.
H. Please clean and disinfect the device after operating it according to the User Manual (7.1).
6.3. Clinical Restrictions
A. As the measurement is taken on the basis of arteriole pulse, substantial pulsating blood flow of
the subject is required. For a subject with weak pulse due to shock, low ambient/body
temperature, major bleeding, or use of vascular contracting drugs, the SpO2waveform (PLETH)
will decrease. In this case, the measurement will be more sensitive to interference.
B. For those with a substantial amount of staining dilution drugs (such as methylene blue, indigo
green and acid indigo blue), carboxyhemoglobin (COHb), methionine (Me+Hb) or thiosalicylic
hemoglobin, and some with an icterus problem, the SpO2determination by this monitor may be
inaccurate.
C. Drugs like dopamine, procaine, prilocaine, lidocaine and butacaine may also be a major factor
blamed for serious errors of SpO2measurements.
D. As the SpO2value serves as a reference value for judgment of anemic anoxia and toxic anoxia,
some patients with serious anemia may also report good SpO2measurement.
