Excellent paper by the UCSF hypoxia lab group demystifying the impact of skin pigment on oximeter accuracy - physiology and principles.
When running out of ventilators everyone was trying to build new ones.
It was lovely, but not the solution to the problem.
The real problem was not having enough healthcare workers. The only solution for that is keeping the number of infections low. And that's lovely help too.
This pre-pub proof explores the current secure national stockpile of #ventilators, including those added from 11 different manufacturers. Their use for #COVID19 care for adult and pediatric patients alike is categorized. @accpchest@SCCM https://t.co/a7p4EXmMjz
