Have to wonder how many Black patients with #COVID19 may have been inappropriately sent home from urgent care & emergency dept settings due to this. 👇 #Medtwitter #emergencymedicine #pccm
Sadly, this is not a new concern and worriedsabout racial bias in pulse oximetry have been raised in the context of a similar racial bias found in heart rate functions of wearable devices.
Certainly a plausible mechanism for worse outcomes in African American patients, on top of structural racism and other factors
