Question 1

ratio of oxyhemoglobin to total concentration of hemoglobin present in blood ; measures percentage off hemoglobin binding sites in the bloodstream occupied by oxygen

Answer 1

oxygen saturation

Question 2

O2 saturation in arterial blood through ABG analysis ; more accurate

Answer 2

arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2)

Question 3

estimation of O2 saturation level measured by a pulse oximeter ; less accurate

Answer 3

saturation of peripheral oxygen (SpO20

Question 4

measurement of blood saturation using spectrophotometry

Answer 4

oximetry

Question 5

every substance has a unique pattern of light absorption

Answer 5

spectrophotometry

Question 6

pattern of light absorption of a substance varies predictably with amount present by measuring light absorbed and transmitted by a substance

Answer 6

Lambert-Beer Law

Question 7

particular pattern of light absorption exhibited by a substance at different wavelengths

Answer 7

absorption spectrum

Question 8

noninvasive method of measuring oxyhemoglobin saturation

Answer 8

pulse oxmetry

Question 9

portable noninvasive monitoring device that provides estimates of arterial blood oxyhemoglobin saturation levels

Answer 9

pulse oximeter

Question 10

uses light to detect the tiny volume changes that occur in living tissue during pulsatile blood flow

Answer 10

spectrophotometry

Question 11

940 nm

Answer 11

red and infrared

Question 12

normal SpO2

Answer 12

equal or greater than 95%

Question 13

patient with cardiac problems

Answer 13

equal or greater than 80%

Question 14

measurement of PO2 and PCO2 through the skin by means of miniature clark (PO2) and Severinghause (PCO2) via double-sided adhesive disk

Answer 14

transcutaneous blood gas monitoring

Question 15

means of continuous ventilatory assessment ; measured by heating underlying skin 44 degree Celsius which facilitates CO2 diffusion across skin to CO2 electrode

Answer 15

PtcCO2 monitoring
