Summary

Pulse oximetry offers reliable, continuous, and noninvasive monitoring of oxygen saturation (SpO2) during lung surgery. This method accurately reflects oxygenation changes, unlike intermittent arterial blood gas analysis.

Area of Science:

  • Anesthesiology
  • Cardiopulmonary Physiology
  • Surgical Monitoring

Background:

  • Arterial blood gas (ABG) analysis is invasive and provides only intermittent data.
  • Pulse oximetry offers noninvasive, continuous monitoring of arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2).
  • Evaluating noninvasive monitoring methods is crucial for patient safety during surgery.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the reliability of pulse oximetry for monitoring oxygenation during lung and intrathoracic surgery.
  • To compare pulse oximetry-derived SpO2 values with SaO2 measurements from arterial blood gases.
  • To determine the accuracy of continuous noninvasive monitoring in surgical settings.

Main Methods:

  • A study involving twelve patients undergoing lung and intrathoracic surgery.

  • Comparison of SpO2 values from a Physiocontrol Oximeter (Lifestat 1600) with SaO2 from arterial blood gas measurements.
  • Linear regression analysis of 46 paired SaO2 values.

    • Main Results:

    • A consistent fall in PaO2 was observed during one-lung ventilation, irrespective of the monitoring method.
    • PaCO2 levels remained constant during the study.
    • A strong positive correlation (r = 0.95; p < 0.001) was found between pulse oximetry and arterial blood gas measurements.

    Conclusions:

    • Pulse oximetry provides a reliable method for monitoring oxygenation during lung surgery.
    • Continuous, noninvasive monitoring of oxygenation is accurate and feasible.
    • Pulse oximetry can be a valuable tool in the perioperative management of thoracic surgery patients.
