Summary

BACKGROUND: As the normal functioning of the body is dependent on oxygen, low blood oxygenation is a acute problem that needs immediate attention. Measurement of blood oxygenation is therefore central to monitor patients and is usually done using light technology with a clip on the finger. Philips manufactures a measuring clip that is designed to measure oxygenation in the nasal wing instead of the finger. The advantage of this is that the nose is not affected as much as the fingers by poor blood flow in the skin, for example caused by cold. The nose is also closer to the heart and lungs than the hand, so changes in oxygenation may be detected earlier. This newer meter is an approved CE-marked product that is available for clinical use, but the next step is to investigate it systematically during and after surgery.
