Peripheral Perfusion: The Missing Physiological Variable in ICU Pulse Oximetry Accuracy Studies
Nursing in Critical Care
TL;DR
Clinical commentary/study framing peripheral perfusion (not only pigmentation) as a missing covariate in ICU pulse-oximetry accuracy work. Aligns with related Sjödin-group evidence that local warming can raise perfusion index and reduce SpO2 bias, with pigmentation as effect-modifier under investigation (see also related ICU warming / NCT follow-ups).
