Respiratory Oximetry Software (PRO)
Oximetry Software Features
PROFOX Oximetry Software (PO) works with a variety of pulse oximeters and will collect and report up to 72 hours of oximetry memory data.
PROFOX gives you flexible reporting for oxygen prescription studies, ICU monitoring, exercise testing, spot checks and continued justification of supplemental oxygen or respiratory support.
PROFOX's easy-to-read, easy-to-interpret reports can:
• Help your patients see the results and effects of compliance with therapy
• Allow easy evaluation of the effectiveness of various therapies
• Validate and document therapeutic effects for insurance purposes
• Make it easy to comply with the requirements of third-party providers
• The software has automatic desaturation event scoring and data analysis. You can change many of the scoring and report features, such as the level defining desaturation events.
• The software provides a variety of graphic and tabular reports with statistical summaries. These reports:
• Are chart-ready 8-1/2 x 11 inch, with wide left margins to accommodate chart-folds.
• Have large print so they can be easily read after being copied or sent via fax.
• Can be printed in color, sent by FAX directly from the computer, and the reports can be previewed on the computer screen.
• Satisfy the latest Medicare guidelines for both supplemental oxygen and BiPAP (the longest continuous time spent with saturation less than 89%).
• Report headings (titles) can be easily changed and saved. Up to 30 different headings can be saved so you can report tests for other facilities.
• You can generate reports for multiple patient studies from a single download.
• The software automatically tracks the editing and report status of each study.
• You may view and edit studies to remove undesired periods, and edited studies may be stored separately. Editing is the most precise available, using full-screen capabilities with multiple time scaling from five minutes up to the entire study.
• Studies containing periods with and without respiratory support may be separated and reported individually.
• The programs allow viewing the patient studies by name alphabetically, as well as by date and time of the study.
• The reports can be printed in English, French, German, Spanish or Swedish, and the date format can be changed to MM/DD/YY, DD-MM-YY or YY-MM-DD.
• The reports can also saved as an Adobe Acrobat (PDF) file that can be emailed to others for easy viewing or printing. The Summary Report can also be saved in ASCII or rich text (RTF) formats for export to electronic charting.
• Studies may be converted into ASCII (text) format, for importing to spreadsheets or databases.
• The programs include algorithms that can be used to detect aberrant data points.

Easy-to-read, easy-to-interpret PROFOX reports include all of the data you expect from high-end oximetry and capnography. Chart-ready and pre-formatted with your organization's details, PROFOX reports are ideal for patient charts, Medicare, and other third-party records.
PROFOX lets you print full-color, full-page reports or condense them leaving the bottom half for typed dictation or physician's notes.You can print up to five different reports that make it easy to comply with third-party requirements.
Report 1:
Graphic
This report presents graphic representations of each of five parameters: Pulse, Saturation, EtCo2, Respiration Rate, and InCO2, measured during a procedure. It can be printed at 1-, 2-, 4-, 8-, or 12-hours per page. The 1-, and 2-hour pages can print the entire test or just the 1- or 2-hour periods having either the lowest average saturation or the highest average end-tidal CO2.
Report 2: %
Times at Each Saturation and End-Tidal CO2
This report is an excellent visual aid for patients because they can easily see the results. This one-page report contains graphs which show the % times at each saturation and % times at each level of end-tidal CO2. The horizontal scaling may be set to linear or logarithmic.
Report 3:
Analysis and Summary
This report indicates the percentage of times spent at various levels of SpO2, Pulse, EtCo2, InCo2, and Respiration Rate. It also indicates the highest, lowest and mean percentages of each measured parameter.
Report 4:
Procedure Event
This one-page text report lists the significant physical events observed or interventions during a procedure. Additionally, each numbered event can be noted at the time of that event on the 8-Hour and 2-Hour graphic reports.
Report 5:
Oximetry Desaturation
This report lists the desaturation event scoring if oximetry was measured. PROFOX identifies the onset of a desaturation event when the saturation decreases by a predefined Event Definition Point (EDP) within a two-minute interval. You can also change the value which defines desaturation event onset.
Additionally, the percent time for a specific saturation level may be reported, which is ideal for Medicare which currently uses 88%. The report also contains data for the new Medicare guideline for BiPAP, which is the longest continuous time with saturation less than 88%.
