Nose sensor may spot oxygen drops faster than finger clip
Knowledge-focused CompletedThis study tested a new oxygen sensor that clips onto the nose instead of the finger. The nose is less affected by poor blood flow and closer to the heart and lungs, so it may detect low oxygen levels earlier. Researchers compared the nose sensor to a standard finger sensor in 56…
