HI (medical abbreviation relating to oxygen saturation/SpO2)

Finnish to English Medical Medical (general)
The abbreviation "HI" often seems to accompany a measurement of oxygen saturation. For example, in a doctor's patient notes:

"Hemodynamisesti stabiili, RR 139/64 mmHg, syke 66/min. Saturoi 95% HI, ei lisähapen tarvetta [...]"

"HI" = ?

My best guess so far is that it's short for "happi", but I've been unable to find explicit confirmation of this.

Thanks for your time,
G.
