The temperature of the children was
assessed using axillary thermometers. As a
The oxygen saturation values were between
59% and 100%, with half of the sample
showing a value over 83% and an average of
83.4% plus/minus 11.1%. The normal values
of oxygen saturation adduced by the hemoglobin
present in arterial blood is between
95-100%, and 50% showed oxygen saturation
to be below the normal range(7). The Kolmogorov-
Smirnov test shows that this variable
had a normal distribution.
