Abstract

Background: measurements by pulse oximeter, considered as the gold standard. The present study aimed to compare arterial blood gas values with the fingertip saturation measurement performed by having adult patients wear gloves of different colors, one after the other, on their fingers and determining the effect of the differently colored gloves (transparent, white, black, light blue) on saturation values. Methods: results were measured. Oxygen saturation was measured while the patient 1. did not wear gloves and 2. sequentially wore a series of gloves of different colors. Paired t-test, correlation analysis, and Bland Altman charts were used to evaluate the results. Results: % value of the intra-arterial blood gas measurements (t=1.157, p=0.093). Conclusion: % value of the intra-arterial blood gas measurements than measurement of the fingers without a glove.
