The YWCA Bangkok-Pattaya Center donated two pulse oximeters to
the Sawang Boriboon Foundation to measure patients’ oxygen saturation.
Chairwoman Praichit Jetpai presented the devices to Sinchai
Wattanasartsathorn, president of the Pattaya Business & Tourism
Association at the Sawang Boriboon headquarters in Naklua Oct. 2.
The oximeter indirectly monitors the oxygen saturation of a patient’s
blood, as opposed to measuring oxygen saturation directly through a
blood sample, and changes in blood volume in the skin, producing a
photoplethysmogram.
The YWCA encouraged other Pattaya businesses and individuals to donate
equipment to the foundation, which is the area’s main emergency
first-responder organization.
