To measure SpO₂ in a child, place a pediatric pulse oximeter sensor on the child's finger, toe, or earlobe, ensuring proper fit and minimal movement. Wait a few seconds for the device to display the oxygen saturation reading. If a pediatric sensor is not available, use an adult sensor with caution, making sure it fits snugly but not too tightly.
