Wow. I wondered about this before, but I didn’t think that the technology could be made with such an obvious flaw. Guess that was naive on my part.

The technology is based on reflected light. I’m not surprised that skin color would play a role in its accuracy. I am surprised we are just finding out now. How many medical devices could have this type of issue?

@choo_ek Have you seen this?
Important information about how pulse oximetry can overestimate ox levels in African-American patients.
Really important message about melanin interference with pulse ox. It can be at play in all situations with darker pigment. More abgs (painful and associated with se’s) can’t be a long term answer!! The physics should be sorted out.
