For any given SaO2, SpO2 readings are higher for those with darker versus lighter skin tone. HealthDay News — Patients with darker skin tones have peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO 2) readings that ...

A major UK study shows that commonly used home pulse oximeters can overestimate oxygen levels in people with darker skin, increasing the risk of undetected hypoxemia and raising urgent questions about ...

Fingertip monitors known as pulse oximeters that can be used at home to detect low blood oxygen levels (hypoxaemia) give higher readings for patients with darker than lighter skin tones, finds the ...

Largest study on this topic suggests that measurement errors lead to potential delays in care and contribute to health disparities Fingertip monitors known as pulse oximeters that can be used at home ...

Fingertip monitors known as pulse oximeters that can be used at home to detect low blood oxygen levels give higher readings for patients with darker than lighter skin tones, according to the largest ...

Fingertip pulse oximeters are more likely to miss dangerously low oxygen in darker skinned people, a new study shows. UK researchers conducted the largest study so far on this topic, involving over ...

Abstract: Objective: Current intrapartum fetal monitoring technology is unable to provide physicians with an objective metric of fetal well-being, leading to degraded patient outcomes and increased ...

Abstract: This work proposes a method utilizing oxygen saturation (SpO2) for predicting incident hypertension in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). We extracted time domain features and ...

Normal blood oxygen saturation levels are 95% to 100%. Most people should have a blood oxygen level of at least 92%. If your blood oxygen level drops below 90%, it can be dangerous and requires ...

Pulse Express is an efficient and versatile breakout board with integrated high-sensitivity optical sensors (MAX30102) and also a chip that does the calculations (biometric sensor hub MAX32664D).

Introduction and Objectives The harms of hyperoxia are well recognised in COPD, with recommended peripheral oxygen saturations (SpO2) of 88–92%. Despite this, there is ongoing harm from excessive ...
