oximeters


Posted by tek on January 27, 2005 at 02:56:50:

We have had a problem with significantly different data from our Bio Logic system oximeter and a Nelcor PB 40 portable oximeter. The Bio Logic oximeter almost always reads higher. The diference generally is 1-2% above 88%, to 10-15% difference when the Bio Logic oximeter reads in the low 70's. Any insights or suggestions?
