Definitions for "Oxygen Saturation"
The maximum amount of oxygen that will dissolve in water at a given temperature. Oxygen saturation is determined by pairing the temperature of the water with the dissolved oxygen value, after first correcting the dissolved oxygen measurement for the effects of atmospheric pressure.
The amount of oxygen carried by blood to the maximum amount that it could carry, expressed as a percent.
The non-high-tech definition is simply the level of oxygen in your bloodstream, expressed as a percentage - 97% is optimal. [ ] P Q
