NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Racial biases persist in the use of pulse oximetry devices for patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF) requiring very high levels of oxygen support, a ...

Abstract: This paper proposes a novel mathematical model that quantitatively defines the relationships between the arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2), the arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2) and ...

Masimo MASI announced that the FDA has granted De Novo status to its noninvasive, continuous parameter — ORi (Oxygen Reserve Index) — designed to provide additional insight into a patient’s oxygen ...

When a patient is receiving supplemental oxygen during surgery, there’s a risk that they’ll develop hyperoxia, where their arterial blood becomes oxygenated above normal levels, potentially leading to ...

Medical terms like blood oxygen, spO2 levels, and oxygen saturation became more popular during the peak COVID-19 pandemic. The Delta variant had taken a massive toll on the population, leading to ...

PaO2 is the partial pressure of oxygen in the blood that represents the overall oxygen content. It is different from SaO2 and SpO2 in that it measures how much oxygen is present, rather than the ...

After initially appearing early for some users, an update to the Google Pixel Watch will officially roll out SpO2 monitoring data to all owners of the smartwatch. Until now, the sensor has laid ...
