Accuracy of the Owlet OSS 3.0 During Standardized Stable Hypoxia Plateaus
Recruiting
This study tests the accuracy of pulse oximeters in a range of arterial oxygen levels from 100% down to 70%. This is done by comparing the test pulse oximeter readings of young, healthy, adult study participants with blood samples drawn from an artery in the wrist during brief plateaus of progressively lower oxygen saturations. The arterial blood sample is processed in a device called a multi-wavelength hemoximeter and compared to the simultaneous oximeter reading. During each set level of oxyge... Read More

Telehealth Intervention for Ostomy Self-Management
Recruiting
Over one million individuals in the U.S. have ostomies. An ostomy is a surgical procedure that creates an opening in the abdominal wall that allows bodily waste (urinary or fecal) to pass through into an external pouch; in essence, it is the externalization of the gastrointestinal or urinary structures to the abdominal wall. For cancer, ostomies are most commonly placed for rectal cancers, followed by urinary bladder cancer. The health-related quality of life impact of an ostomy is tremendous an... Read More
