What is Pulse Oximeter Accuracy in ICU Patients about?
This study evaluated the accuracy and bias of SpO2 values from four pulse oximeters (Nonin, Nellcor, Masimo, and Philips) compared to arterial blood gas measurements in stable ICU patients. Results showed significant bias and moderate accuracy, with Philips overestimating SaO2 and the other three oximeters underestimating it, which may impact clinical decisions regarding oxygen therapy. The findings highlight the variability in performance among different oximeter brands in real-world clinical settings.
