So, it would appear that the inventors missed it, the manufacturers missed it, the medics missed it, the researchers finally identified it. The organisations of most if not all will have expressed a commitment to diversity. What went wrong then, and where

@tdwck YES. Such an important issue to promote awareness of. We were just talking about this today! Also relevant
Importantly I omitted Sjoding’s 2020 paper This DOES suggest an increase in occult hypoxia in patients of black ethnicity (perhaps a doubling) I think the study is quite tightly designed to detect this. A limitation is a 10-min window between measures.
