Résumé
This study aimed to assess the impact of race on pulse oximetry reliability, taking into account Spo Retrospective cohort study covering admissions from January 2020 to April 2024. National COVID Cohort Collaborative (N3C) database, consisting of electronic health records from 80 U.S. institutions. Patients were selected from the N3C database based on the availability of data on self-identified race and both pulse oximetry estimated Spo None. The agreement between Spo Race significantly impacts pulse oximetry reliability. Not only Black and Hispanic or Latino patients were at higher risk for hidden hypoxemia, but also those admitted with a COVID-19 diagnosis. Future in-depth explorations into the underlying causes and potential solutions are needed.
