A: Blood oxygen level is measured using pulse oximetry, a noninvasive procedure designed to monitor the delivery of oxygen to peripheral tissue, says Johns Hopkins Medicine. Pulse oximetry uses hemoglobin coloration and blood flow pulsation to measure the blood oxygen level.
What is pulse oximetry? Pulse oximetry is a test used to measure the oxygen level (oxygen saturation) of the blood. It is an easy, painless measure of how well oxygen is being sent to parts of your body furthest from your heart, such as the arms and legs. A clip-like device called a probe is placed on a body part, such as a finger or ear lobe. The probe uses light to measure how much oxygen is in the blood. This information helps the health care provider decide if a person needs extra oxygen.
