Interfering Substances
Carboxyhemoglobin and methemoglobin will erroneously alter oxygen saturation readings. The level of increase
is approximately equal to the amount of carboxyhemoglobin and/or methemoglobin present. Dyes, or any
substance containing dyes, that change usual arterial pigmentation may cause erroneous readings.
