How to Test SpO2 at 70%
A 5-step procedure to test PPG SpO2 function
Accurately testing SpO2 performance at 70% presents a practical and ethical challenge in human-based testing. Controlled studies capable of reaching this level require specialized clinical environments, strict medical supervision, and carefully selected subjects. Even then, maintaining a stable and repeatable 70% SpO2 level for systematic device evaluation is difficult. For this reason, controlled simulation of PPG optical signals provides a practical and repeatable method for validating low-saturation performance in a controlled setting.
