1. Pulse oximetry is at best, a guide, it does not replace ABG sampling.
2. It is a nice device, but I do not put it first. Look for cap. refill, and lip color to aide you. Oximeters give false readings for victims of carbon monoxide poisoning because it is absorbed by red blood cells by 10 times the rate of oxygen.
