Impact of Study Oximeter Masking Algorithm on Titration of Oxygen Therapy in the Canadian Oxygen Trial
Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To compare oxygen saturations as displayed to caregivers on offset pulse oximeters in the 2 groups of the Canadian Oxygen Trial.
STUDY DESIGN: In 5 double-blind randomized trials of oxygen saturation targeting, displayed saturations between 88% and 92% were offset by 3% above or below the true values but returned to true values below 84% and above 96%. During the transition, displayed values remained static at 96% in the lower and at …
