Awesome work by @msjoding @robertpdickson and @iwashyna from Michigan! I will be much more aware of this bias in pulse oximetry in the future.

Pulse ox detects O2 via changes of light absorption in blood. Skin color may impact accuracy. "In 2 lg cohorts, black patients had nearly 3times the frequency of occult hypoxemia (<88%) that was not detected by pulse oximetry as white patients." #COVID
