If it is a high reading the caregiver would likely remove or decrease the amount of oxygen the patient is on. Because there are factors that can interfere with an accurate reading, there are other ways to test the oxygen levels in the blood.
Pulse ox measures oxygen saturation in the blood, while VO2 max measures the maximum amount of oxygen a person can use during exercise. Pulse ox gives a snapshot of oxygen levels at a specific moment, while VO2 max indicates overall cardiovascular fitness. Both measurements are important in assessing health and fitness, with pulse ox reflecting immediate oxygen levels and VO2 max indicating overall aerobic capacity.
