Explains years of asthma attacks where I couldn't breath and pulse-ox said I was fine. Devices not standardized on #Black people. "nearly three times the frequency of occult hypoxemia that was not detected by pulse oximetry as White patients." https://t.c

@RepGwenMoore Hoping that you only have mild symptoms @ worst & recover fully. We just got thru it in my house & found that an oximeter was very helpful. However I was just reading up on how some read incorrectly on darker skin (shows ⬆️ O2 levels

And not some shocking news, that pulse oximeter‘s consistently measure oxygen as higher higher in darker skinned individuals compared to an arterial blood gas measurement. #techgaslighting

Now this is racial disparity research that's worth doing. Oximeters give false confidence to darker people by overestimating their oxygen saturation.

Given we're in a pandemic of a respiratory illness I wonder what the rate of usage of this medical technology that passed FDA testing is. Clearly it needs to go back to the drawing board.
