SaO2 is directly related Hgb and how saturated the blood is with O2 molecules. SpO2 is the measurement of dissolved O2 molecules in the blood/plasma and solely dependent on lung functioning. Therefore, a patient can have an adequate SaO2 (saturation of O2 on Hgb) but in general the lung functions can be dec. causing a low PaO2.

If you are moving a pulse ox probe around and looking at a waveform you are measuring the SpO2. If you are looking at SO2 on the ABG then you are looking at a calculated value.

In the discussion, they state "it describes the relationship between the sat of Hb and the patrial pressure of (PO2) in the blood. Due to the shape of the curve, a small drop in PaO2 below 8kPa will cause a marked fall in SaO2." In the same paragraph, they made reference to both PO2 and PaO2.
