AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.

Inclusion Criteria: * Passing the initial examination, which will determine the following data: finger circumference, heart rate, blood pressure and blood oxygen saturation Exclusion Criteria: * post-traumatic conditions of the upper limbs affecting the perfusion of the fingers or injuries or skin diseases on the fingers. * pneumothorax or a condition after cardiovascular surgery. * anemia, bradycardia, hemoglobinopathy or other diseases of the cardiovascular system, pregnancy, diabetes, hypotension or hypertension.

What they're measuring

Does it depend on which finger is the sensor placed for SpO2 values?

Timeframe: Up to 12 weeks
