Information
for the User
The pulse oximeter is calibrated to indicate functional oxygen saturation
(fractional oxyhemoglobin), and displayed results can range from 0 to 100%.
A 10 second averaging filter is used in the calculation of the result. Displayed
results are typically updated every second, but the update period can be
automatically delayed by up to 30 seconds in the presence of noise.
