Oxygen saturation.preductal-oxygen saturation.postductal [Mass fraction difference] in Bld.preductal and Bld.postductal
Active
Term Description
This term represents the quantitative difference between the preductal and postductal oxygen saturation measurements and is used in conjunction with the two measurements to determine the end result of the screening event, such as for critical congenital heart defects (CCHD) in newborns.
Part Description
LP172627-4 Oxygen saturation.preductal-oxygen saturation.postductal
Oxygen saturation (sO2) is defined as the ratio of oxyhemoglobin to "active" hemoglobin (oxyhemoglobin + deoxyhemoglobin). Some say the term oxygen saturation has been erroneously redefined with a denominator of "total" instead of "active" hemoglobin, an ambiguity that can sometimes create confusion when viewing reported values from different instruments (Anesth Analg. 2007 Dec;105(6 Suppl):S5-9.) Oxygen saturation is commonly measured by blood gas analyzers and pulse oximetry.
