Description
본 발명은 산소포화도 측정 방식에 관한 것으로, 더욱 상세하게는 펄스옥시미터에 관한 것이다. The present invention relates to a method for measuring oxygen saturation, and more particularly, to a pulse oximeter.
산소포화도의 검사 방법에는 침습적인 방법인 동맥혈 가스 검사법과 비침습적인 방법인 산소포화도 측정기 펄스옥시미터를 통하여 검사하는 방법이 있다.There are two methods for testing oxygen saturation: the arterial blood gas test, which is an invasive method, and a method that uses a pulse oximeter, an oxygen saturation meter, which is a non-invasive method.
펄스옥시미터를 통한 산소포화도 측정은 적혈구 중 헤모글로빈과 산소가 실제 결합하고 있는 비율을 퍼센트(%)로 표시한 것으로써 통상적으로 산소포화도의 정상 범위는 97~100%이며 90% 미만이면 저산소증을 의심하게 된다.Oxygen saturation measurement using a pulse oximeter is expressed as a percentage (%) of the actual combination of hemoglobin and oxygen in red blood cells. Normally, the normal range of oxygen saturation is 97 to 100%, and if it is less than 90%, hypoxia is suspected. will do
적혈구 속의 헤모글로빈이 산소와 결합하여 산소를 옮겨주는 역할을 하게 되는데 산소와 결합한 헤모글로빈은 적외선(940nm)을 더 잘 흡수하고, 산소와 결합하지 않은 환원헤모글로빈은 빨간색 광원(660nm)을 더 흡수하는 성질을 가지고 있다. 이를 이용하여 혈액에 충분한 산소가 있을 경우 산소와 결합한 헤모글로빈이 상대적으로 많아서 적외선이 혈관을 통과하면서 대부분 흡수되어 검출기에서 적외선이 검출되지 않게 된다.Hemoglobin in red blood cells binds with oxygen and plays a role in transporting oxygen. Hemoglobin that binds oxygen absorbs infrared rays (940 nm) better, and reduced hemoglobin that does not bind oxygen absorbs more of a red light source (660 nm). Have. Using this, when there is sufficient oxygen in the blood, the amount of hemoglobin bound to oxygen is relatively large, so most of the infrared rays are absorbed while passing through the blood vessels, so that the infrared rays are not detected by the detector.
통상적으로 산소포화도의 측정은 발광부와 수광부 센서를 동반하는 측정기 센서 부분을 손가락 끝 또는 발가락 끝에 부착하게 되는데 손가락에 부착된 측정기 센서와 케이블 등의 장치로 인해서 환자의 이동이 불편해지게 되며 신체에 부착물 부착으로 인한 피로감을 증가시키게 된다.Normally, the measurement of oxygen saturation is carried out by attaching the sensor part of the measuring device accompanied by the light emitting part and the light receiving part sensor to the tip of the finger or toe. Fatigue due to attachment of attachments increases.
