In the EXAKT study from the U.K., the home-use pulse oximeters assessed all gave higher oxygen saturation (SpO2) readings for patients with darker skin tones than for patients with lighter skin tones.
Pulse oximetry was less accurate for people with darker skin tones in two studies, one regarding home-use devices and the other hospital-grade devices, although with some surprising differences ...
A major UK study shows that commonly used home pulse oximeters can overestimate oxygen levels in people with darker skin, increasing the risk of undetected hypoxemia and raising urgent questions about ...

If you’ve ever been to a concert or sat too close to a loudspeaker, you’ve likely experienced ringing in your ears afterward. But if you often hear a sound that’s in sync with your heartbeat or a ...
Fingertip monitors known as pulse oximeters that can be used at home to detect low blood oxygen levels (hypoxaemia) give higher readings for patients with darker than lighter skin tones, finds the ...

Abstract: With the advancements in power semiconductors and converters, power electronics based high-voltage pulse generators (HVPG) have emerged due to their advantages of high repetition rate, ...
Normal blood oxygen saturation levels are 95% to 100%. Most people should have a blood oxygen level of at least 92%. If your blood oxygen level drops below 90%, it can be dangerous and requires ...
