Using Pulse Oximeters - WHO
A pulse oximeter is composed of the sensor (or probe) and the monitor with the display. The probe is on the finger and is detecting the flow of blood through the finger. This is displayed as a pulse wave on the monitor. A pulse wave must be present to demonstrate that a pulse is being detected. In this figure, the patient has a pulse rate of

Pulse Oximetry - American Thoracic Society
www.thoracic.orgHow accurate is the pulse oximeter? The oxygen level from a pulse oximeter is reasonably accurate. Most oximeters give a reading 2% over or 2% under what your saturation would be if obtained by an arterial blood gas. For example, if your oxygen saturation reads 92% on the pulse oximeter, it may be actually anywhere from 90 to 94%.
