Oxygen saturation is a key indicator of how efficiently the lungs function. Our lungs transmit oxygen from the air we breathe into small blood vessels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
These blood vessels provide oxygen-rich blood to the heart, which then pumps it through the arteries to every part of the body. To function effectively, our organs require a constant supply of oxygen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But if the lungs’ ability to carry oxygen into the blood is impaired, blood oxygen saturation decreases, thereby endangering our organs. This decline can be detected with pulse oximeters, which notify patients of the need for immediate medical attention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This blog post discusses pulse oximeters’ role in monitoring oxygen levels and our respiratory health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
