OBJECTIVES: Prior studies have shown inaccuracies in pulse oximetry readings at saturations less than 85%; however, no large studies have evaluated new sensors marketed for these low saturations. This study's purpose was to evaluate two sensors with claims of improved accuracy in children with saturations less than 85%. DESIGN: Prospective observational study. SETTING: Single institution; ...
Background Several pioneering studies have provided evidence for the introduction of universal pulse oximetry screening for critical congenital heart disease. I lowever, whether the benefits of screening reported in studies from high-income countries would translate with similar success to low-income countries is unknown. We assessed the feasibility and reliability of pulse oximetry plus clinical ...
As a technology, photoplethysmography (PPG) has been explored for almost a century, but it is only in the last few years that it has had a broader application beyond specialised medical settings. That has generally been driven by the evolution of smartphones, smartwatches and even smaller wearable devices such as smart rings. PPG is most commonly used in pulse oximetry in clinical settings ...

Hypothermia is the leading prolonged anesthesia side effect in animals. In both dogs and cats, hypothermia, and even hyperthermia, can often happen with any lengthy surgical procedure – dental or general – or in a patient that has comorbid issues. Veterinary-specific multiparameter digital monitors are the key to quickly determining if an anesthetized patient is becoming hypothermic ...
