Association of Oxygen Saturation on Home Pulse Oximetry With Telephone Triage DecisionTake-Home Points

Background: Given limited tools for objective assessment during telephone triage, home pulse oximeters may augment clinical decision-making in patients with respiratory conditions. However, there are well-documented concerns about clinically significant, race-discrepant pulse oximetry error. Researc...
