Oximetry
Conditions
Brief summary
The primary aim of this research is to determine the accuracy of smartphone pulse oximeters in detecting blood oxygen saturations, episodes of desaturations, and heart rate by comparing results to a Masimo© hospital-grade pulse oximeter.
Interventions
Smartphones with pulse oximetry and heart rate monitoring capabilities
