    What effects oximetry?

    • Nail Polish

    • Ambient Light, Temperature

    • Perfusion, Low Blood Pressure

    • Movement

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Nail Polish
    A. Ambient Light, Temperature
    A. Perfusion, Low Blood Pressure
    A. Movement
    Explanation
    Oximetry is a medical procedure used to measure the oxygen saturation in the blood. Nail polish can interfere with the accuracy of the reading as it can block the light absorption by the sensor. Ambient light and temperature can also affect the accuracy of the reading by interfering with the sensor's ability to detect the light absorption. Perfusion refers to the blood flow to the tissues, and low blood pressure can affect the accuracy of the reading by reducing the blood flow. Movement can also interfere with the reading as it can cause artifacts in the signal.

    • Pulse Oximeter

    • Option 2

    • Option 3

    • Option 4

    Correct Answer
    A. Pulse Oximeter
    Explanation
    A pulse oximeter is a medical device used to measure the oxygen saturation level in the blood. It does this by shining two different wavelengths of light, typically red and infrared, through a person's finger or earlobe. The device then measures the amount of light that is absorbed by the oxygenated and deoxygenated blood, allowing it to calculate the oxygen saturation level. Therefore, the statement "Uses two wavelengths of light" accurately describes how a pulse oximeter works.
