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 ...

Multivariable equations are recommended by primary prevention guidelines to assess absolute risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, current equations have several limitations. Therefore, we ...
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 ...
Abstract: The paper proposes the diagnosis of Sleep Apnea Hypopnea Syndrome (SAHS) only using snore sound and SaO2 signals. The time-frequency characteristics of snore sound signal are extracted to ...
Serious hidden hypoxemia — defined as an SaO2 less than 88% despite an SpO2 of 92% or greater — occurred in 0.6% of the critically ill Asian patients studied. Hypoxemia went undetected in 0.8% of ...

The EquiOx study showed that in critically ill patients, oxygen saturation assessed by pulse oximetry (SpO 2) was often lower than arterial oxygen saturation (SaO 2 ...
