The method allows you to objectively evaluate arterial hypoxemia, therefore, it can be used in functional diagnostics and in the daily practice of interns of any specialization. The article briefly presents the history of pulse oximetry and a description of the technique. Particular attention is paid to the accuracy of measurements and reference values of pulse oximetry. The functional significance ofpulse oximetry is also considered here. Several sections are devoted to practical issues: interpretation of the results of pulse oximetry in the diagnosis of arterial hypoxia, in the differential diagnosis of shortness of breath, the diagnostic value of the phenomenon of desaturation.
