The formula to calculate the Oxygen Saturation at Altitude is:
\[ SpO2 = 100 \times \left( \frac{0.21 \times (760 - 0.5 \times Altitude)}{1 + 0.004 \times (37 - Temp)} \right) \]
Where:
Oxygen Saturation at Altitude refers to the decrease in oxygen levels in the blood when a person is at high altitudes. The air at higher altitudes is thinner and contains less oxygen, which can make it harder for the body to get the oxygen it needs. This can lead to a condition called hypoxia, where there is not enough oxygen in the body to sustain bodily functions. Symptoms can include shortness of breath, rapid heartbeat, and lack of coordination.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ SpO2 = 100 \times \left( \frac{0.21 \times (760 - 0.5 \times 2000)}{1 + 0.004 \times (37 - 15)} \right) \approx 78.44 \% \]
The Oxygen Saturation at Altitude (SpO2) is approximately 78.44%.
