Healthy
Conditions
Brief summary
In this study, the level of oxygen within the blood will be reduced in a controlled manner by reducing the concentration of oxygen the study volunteer breathes. The accuracy of a noninvasive pulse oximeter sensor will be assessed by comparison to the oxygen saturation measurements from a laboratory blood gas analyzer.
Interventions
Noninvasive pulse oximeter finger sensor.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Accuracy of Sensor | 1-5 hours | Accuracy will be determined by comparing the noninvasive blood oxygen saturation measurement of the pulse oximeter to that obtained from a blood sample and calculating the arithmetic root mean square error (Arms) value. |
| Accuracy of Sensor during motion | 1-5 hours | Accuracy will be determined by comparing the noninvasive blood oxygen saturation measurement of the pulse oximeter to that obtained from a blood sample during motion conditions and calculating the arithmetic root mean square error (Arms) value. |
