Yes. Sort of.
In a healthy person at rest - the average venous saturation is approximately 75%.
This is the result of mixing blood from muscles (or the brain) which is usually down to 25% with blood from places like the kidneys and the skin where venous blood is often greater than 90% saturated.

What does an oxygen saturation level of 66 percent mean?
It means 66% of the hemoglobin molecules are oxygenated. This is a very low reading for arterial blood -- not compatible with life (for a human) for more than a few minutes -- though it might be seen in venous blood. Normal arterial oxygen saturation percentage is in the 90s.
What is the approximate percent saturation of hemoglobin by oxygen in normal arterial blood?
The saturation should be above 90% in normal arterial blood. A totally healthy person will have 95-100% saturation.
What is hemoglobin saturation in mixed venous blood?
Hemoglobin saturation in mixed venous blood refers to the percentage of hemoglobin molecules that are bound to oxygen in the blood returning to the heart from the body. Typically, mixed venous blood has a lower saturation level compared to arterial blood, usually ranging from 60% to 80%. This lower saturation reflects the oxygen that has been delivered to tissues and is a key indicator of the body’s oxygen utilization and metabolic activity. Monitoring this value is important in assessing respiratory and circulatory efficiency.
What is The normal venous CO2 and CvO2?
The normal venous partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO2) is around 35-45 mmHg, and the normal central venous oxygen saturation (CvO2) is around 70-75%. These values may vary slightly depending on the individual and the laboratory reference ranges.
Is the percent saturation of carbon monoxide poisoning is always 34?
No, it not true since the level of saturation of any substance in the blood can be 100 percent.
What causes high venous oxygen saturation?
High venous oxygen saturation typically occurs when there is decreased tissue oxygen extraction, such as in states of decreased metabolism (e.g., hypothermia) or decreased oxygen demand (e.g., sedation). It can also happen in conditions with shunting of blood from arterial to venous circulation, such as with certain congenital heart defects.
When blood leaves the lungs what percent is saturated with oxygen?
When blood leaves the lungs, it is typically about 95% to 100% saturated with oxygen. This high level of saturation occurs as oxygen from the alveoli diffuses into the blood, binding to hemoglobin in red blood cells. Factors such as altitude, lung function, and health can affect this saturation level, but under normal conditions, it remains close to full saturation.
What does a mixed venous blood gas sample drawn from pulmonary artery of 35 indicate?
It depends if the 35 is oxygen 35 mmHg or 35% oxygen saturation. Most likely you mean 35 mmgHg, correlating to a oxygen saturation about 65%, which is around normal. This blood has the lowest oxygen content in the body system. A 35% saturation though is clearly abnormal most likely indicates the body is not getting adequate oxygen.
Is it normal for your oxygen saturation to be at 98 percent?
What is the best oxygen sat level for fighting lung cancer?
What is considered a normal blood oxygen saturation level for a non-smoker how can this be affected by smoking and at what range is blood oxygen saturation considered impaired Resources appreciated?
90
What is the condition where normal blood flow is slowed or halted?
Coagulation or clotting means to stop blood flow.
What is normal pH?
arterial blood pH = 7.41 (outgoing from heart) venous blood pH = 7.36 (returning to heart)
