Sa02 refers to the the saturation of the haemaglobin with oxygen in arterial blood ie the percentage of haemoglobin molecules carrying oxygen.

Sa refers to arterial saturaion.

Sinoatrial.
SaO2 = Oxygen Saturation (arterial blood or hemoglobin)

It's saturated oxygen

Saturation........the number (like 99%) tells you how much oxygen is attached to hemoglobin or how ''Saturated" hemoglobin is with oxygen. Hope that helps.

That formula is written incorrectly. There are 1/2 dozen or so elements with an S, such as Strontium (Sr), Sulfur(S) and others, but no Sa.
