Study Summary

This multisite study seeks to understand whether and how pulse oximeter accuracy varies across children with different skin colors in real world clinical settings. Many factors can affect how well pulse oximeters work; for example, movement and even fingernail polish. Some studies in adults show that skin color may also affect the pulse oximeter reading. In this study, we will explore pulse oximeter accuracy in children of all skin colors who are undergoing cardiac catheterizations. The study will address limitations of prior work by objectively measuring skin color across multiple dimensions of color and comparing the the pulse oximeter reading to the "gold standard" blood sample measurement.

Primary Outcome

Pulse oximeter bias is the difference between the pulse oximeter value (estimated % oxygen saturation measured via pulse oximeter) and the gold standard measure of arterial oxygen saturation (% oxygen saturation in blood sample measured via co-oximeter).
