Technologies to measure CO2 and O2 (1 Viewer)

[Minimitt]

hey all,
have an assessment question is pretty much the same as the dot point
1. Analyise information from secondary sources to identify current technologies that allow measurement of oxygen saturation and carbon dioxide concentrations in blood and descrive and explain the conditrions under which these technologies are used

I need multiple technologies: first up i chose an easy one that i knew (Arterial Blood Gas ABG) just need suggestions for what other techologies are out there to research

Thanks.

there is also a devise called a pulse oximeter it is used to measure the oxygen saturation level of the blood via infrared light
hope this helps
