Pulse oximeters put to the test in extreme Low-Oxygen conditions
Knowledge-focused OngoingThis study checks how accurately pulse oximeters (devices that measure blood oxygen through the skin) work when oxygen levels are very low. Twelve healthy adults will have their oxygen levels carefully lowered while the device readings are compared to blood samples. The goal is t…

Are your pulse oximeters accurate? new study puts them to the test
Knowledge-focused OngoingThis study checks how accurately pulse oximeters—devices that shine light through skin to measure blood oxygen—work in healthy adults aged 18 to 50. Participants will have their oxygen levels lowered in a controlled way while the device readings are compared to actual blood sampl…
