This study evaluates the pulse oximetry (SpO₂) sensor for clinical performance, form, and fit in hospitalized infants and children (28 days to 12 years). It compares SpO₂ measurements from the device to arterial oxygen saturation (SaO₂) values from arterial CO-oximetry, and assesses the reliability of usable data, performance across skin tones, and user feedback.
This prospective clinical study evaluates a pulse oximetry sensor in hospitalized infants (28 days to 23 months) and children (2-12 years) under routine clinical conditions. The primary objective is to assess the accuracy and agreement of SpO₂ measurements compared with reference SaO₂ values obtained from CO-oximetry analysis of simultaneously drawn arterial blood, using methods aligned with ISO 80601-2-61 (3rd edition CD draft) and FDA draft guidance. Secondary objectives include measuring the proportion of time the device produces invalid or unusable data to assess reliability for clinical use. The safety objective is to collect safety information, including type and number of AEs, SAEs, and device issues. Results may support product development, regulatory submissions, and marketing activities.
