What should your oxygen saturation be? What are normal and safe oxygen levels? How does a finger pulse oximeter work? Learn about blood oxygen levels, symptoms of low oxygen (hypoxemia), and ways to keep your blood oxygen levels in the normal range, with charts.
A normal range for your blood oxygen level is between 92% and 100%. SpO2 readings can fluctuate based on activity, overall health, and other factors. Your body relies on a coordinated effort between your heart, lungs, and circulatory system to maintain a healthy blood oxygen level.
A healthy blood oxygen level is 75–100 mm Hg, or 95–100%. Low blood oxygen levels, known as hypoxemia, may be a cause for concern. Your blood oxygen level is a measure of how much oxygen...
Blood oxygen levels refer to the amount of oxygen circulating in the blood. Normal blood oxygen levels fall between 75 and 100 millimeters of mercury (mm Hg) on arterial blood gas (ABG) test...
Your blood oxygen level (blood oxygen saturation) is the amount of oxygen that's circulating in your blood. It can be measured with a blood test or a pulse oximeter.
Oxygen saturation levels (SpO2) between 95 to 100 percent are considered normal for both adults and children (below 95% is considered abnormal). People over 70 years of age may have oxygen levels closer to 95%.
Most people have a normal resting pulse oximetry reading for oxygen saturation (SpO2) between 95% and 100%. This shows that your blood has an appropriate amount of oxygen. People at higher altitudes may have slightly lower readings. If your oxygen saturation level drops below 95%, it may suggest a potential issue with your lung or heart function.
