Carbon monoxide poisoning is a significant problem in most countries, and a reliable method of quick diagnosis would greatly improve patient care. Until the recent introduction of a multi-wavelength “pulse CO-oximeter” (Masimo Rainbow SET® Radical-7), carboxyhemoglobin (COHb) levels in blood required blood sampling and laboratory analysis. The purpose of this study was to determine if hypoxemia, which can accompany carbon monoxide poisoning, interferes with the accurate detection of COHb. Twelve healthy non-smoking adult volunteers were fitted with 2 standard pulse oximeter finger probes and 2 Rainbow probes for COHb detection. A radial arterial catheter was placed for blood sampling during three interventions: 1) increasing hypoxemia in incremental steps with oxygen saturations (SaO2) of 100-80%; 2) normoxia with incremental increases in %COHb to 12%; and 3) elevated COHb combined with hypoxemia with SaO2 of 100-80%. Pulse oximeter readings (SpCO) were compared with simultaneous arterial blood values at the various increments of hypoxemia and carboxyhemoglobinemia (≈25 samples per subject). Pulse CO-oximeter performance was analyzed by calculating the mean bias (SpCO – %COHb), standard deviation of the bias (precision), and the root mean square error (Arms). The Radical 7 accurately detected hypoxemia with both normal and elevated levels of COHb (bias mean ± SD: 0.44 ± 1.69% at %COHb < 4%, and −0.29 ± 1.64% at %COHb ≥ 4%, P < 0.0001, and Arms 1.74% vs. 1.67%). COHb was accurately detected during normoxia and moderate hypoxia (bias mean ± SD: −0.98 ± 2.6 at SaO2 ≥ 95%, and −0.7 ± 4.0 at SaO2 < 95%, P = 0.60, and Arms 2.8% vs. 4.0%), but when SaO2 fell below ~85%, the pulse CO-oximeter always gave low signal quality errors and did not report SpCO values. In healthy volunteers, the Radical 7 pulse CO-oximeter accurately detects hypoxemia with both low and elevated COHb levels, and accurately detects carboxyhemoglobin, but only reads SpCO when SaO2 is greater than about 85%.
