| description | Infant's heart rate as measured by the pulse oximeter during preductal oxygen saturation measurement. Preductal measurement indicates that the measurements are taken using a pulse oximetry device placed in an anatomical location whose blood supply originates from the aorta before the junction of the aorta with the ductus arteriosus (usually the right hand). | ||

| component | Heart rate | ||
| property | NRat = Number=Count/Time | ||
| time | Pt = Point in time: To identify measures at a point in time. This is a synonym for “spot” or “random” as applied to urine measurements. | ||
| system | Bld.preductal | ||
| scale | Qn = Quantitative: The result of the test is a numeric value that relates to a continuous numeric scale. Reported either as an integer, a ratio, a real number, or a range. The test result value may optionally contain a relational operator from the set {<=, <, >, >=}.
