Masimo’s NeoPODS study in critically ill newborns found its SET pulse oximetry technology delivered consistent accuracy across all skin tones, with less than 1% bias. The findings address longstanding ...

Abstract: Noncontact prediction of peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) is necessary for monitoring vital signs of patients afflicted by infectious disease or sensitive to skin irritation. Recently, ...

This review synthesised existing evidence on racial disparities in pulse oximeter accuracy, quantified the degree of bias, evaluated clinical effects, highlighted implications for practice, and ...

The NeoPODS study evaluated Masimo’s SET pulse oximetry in 100 hospitalized newborns, using 136 paired SpO2-SaO2 measurements from 70 patients meeting strict criteria. Researchers employed objective ...

Abstract: In this work, a detection and classification method for sleep apnea and hypopnea, using photopletysmography (PPG) and peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO 2) signals, is proposed. The detector ...

Apple has been embroiled in a six-year legal battle over one of its Apple Watch health apps. The end may finally be in sight, and here's what Apple has to say about it. Anna Gragert Senior Editor, ...

引言患者曾在6年里，按照血栓来治疗肺动脉里的病变都有效，但就在一次检查中发现，肺动脉内新发充盈缺损，原有的治疗手段完全失效——我们不禁要问：那个一直按血栓处理的病变，真的只是血栓吗？感染触发的右心失代偿背后，是不是藏着从未真正触及的核心病因？……这则 ...

To take a pulse oximetry reading, turn on the device, place it on your fingertip, sit still, and wait for a stable reading. Normal oxygen saturation levels range from 95% to 100%; levels below 92% may ...

Oxygen is essential for adequate cellular functioning and highly specialized systems have developed to maintain a delicate balance during conditions of relatively low to high levels of oxygen ...

Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is an increasingly accepted noninvasive method for monitoring regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rScO 2) and cerebral fractional tissue oxygen extraction (cFTOE) in ...
