Testing pulse oximeters in healthy adults during low oxygen
Part of Skin clinical trials.
This study checks how well pulse oximeters (the devices that clip on your finger to measure oxygen levels) work when healthy people breathe lower-oxygen air. It helps make sure these devices are accurate for everyone.

This study checks how well a special ring (EvieMED Ring) measures oxygen in your blood when oxygen levels are made very low in a controlled setting. It helps see if the ring is accurate for people with serious health conditions.
This study tests how healthy adults respond to low oxygen levels and blood dilution. It may help improve monitoring for patients in critical care.
This trial checks how well pulse oximeters work on different skin tones by measuring blood flow in the hand. You may help improve the accuracy of these devices for everyone.
This trial tests a new patch that measures oxygen in your blood. Healthy volunteers wear the patch while their oxygen levels are briefly lowered in a controlled way to see how well the patch works.
This study will check if a person's skin tone affects how well a pulse oximeter (the clip on your finger that measures oxygen) works. You may join if you are already scheduled for an arterial blood gas test to compare the readings.
This trial compares how well different fingertip pulse oximeters measure oxygen levels, using an arterial blood test as the reference. It may help improve oxygen monitoring for ICU patients, especially when measurements can be hard or inaccurate.
