Bias in pulse oximeters isn't just a clinical glitch — it’s a systemic issue that puts patients with darker skin at risk.

The differences, or bias, between estimates of blood oxygen saturation levels as measured with pulse oximeters compared to ...

A recent study published by CU Center for COMBAT Research investigators finds most critically injured patients can recover with less supplemental oxygen than has previously been suggested.

Mixed venous oxygen saturation (SVO2) represents the oxygen saturation of blood returning to the lungs before reaching the alveolo-capillary units. SVO2 is strongly associated with clinical outcomes ...

People with COPD typically require the use of oxygen therapy when they reach a state known as hypoxia. However, oxygen levels should not go above 100 mmHg (millimeters of mercury). Studies in animals ...

Marine mammals may have a secret weapon to survive long dives – an ability to directly sense their own circulating blood-oxygen levels that most mammals lack – allowing them to stay submerged longer ...

The finding suggests gray seals (Halichoerus grypus) perceive their own blood oxygen levels, an ability that prevents them from drowning on dives that can last up to an hour. Mammals need oxygen ...

He has "suspended non-invasive mechanical ventilation and also reduced the need for high-flow oxygen therapy", it said, adding that there was progress in the pope's motor and respiratory ...

Read on to learn more about blood glucose levels by age with a chart offering glucose level guidance, as well as other factors that may influence your glucose levels. The 2025 standards of care ...

Could lumpy metallic rocks in the deepest, darkest reaches of the ocean be making oxygen in the absence of sunlight? Some scientists think so, but others have challenged the claim that so-called ...

It turns out that increased oxygen levels did not trigger the arrival of more complex marine organisms. This has been determined by analyzing thallium isotopes found in sediment rocks from the ...
