Calculation Method for Displayed Values
Pulse level meter
The pulse level is expressed as the ratio of the constant amount of trans-
mitted light to the variable amount (not normalized), as shown in the fol-
lowing formula. It is indicated in eight levels (0 to 9%; full scale for 9% or
higher).
Pulse level (%) =
Oxygen saturation (SpO
Updates the moving average of the oxygen saturation over the last 12
seconds at one-second intervals.
Pulse rate (P.R.)
Updates the moving average of the last 8 pulse rates at one-second in-
tervals.
