Schedule an appointment with the HR department to find out what your companyâs policies are. In most cases your company will require you to use a combination of sick leave, personal days, vacation days, short-term disability (STD), and unpaid family leave for your time away from work.
Pulse oximetry is a procedure used to measure the oxygen level (or oxygen saturation) in the blood. It is considered to be a noninvasive, painless, general indicator of oxygen delivery to the peripheral tissues (such as the finger, earlobe, or nose).
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. Pulse oximetry may be used to see if there is enough oxygen in the blood. This information is needed in many kinds of situations.
