This is incredible. I had no idea
A whole lot of important decisions are being made right now based on pulse ox readings. “Thus, in two large cohorts, Black patients had nearly three times the frequency of occult hypoxemia that was not detected by pulse oximetry as White patients” https

Pulse ox is amazing, until it’s not... 😱 It can read high, especially in black pts. BIG problem in #COVID19! Good argument for at least one ABG in resp failure pts. Cooximetry best if available. @msjoding @robertpdickson @iwashyna #StevenGay @tsvalley h
