Are Pulse Oximeters Racist? What I Learned About Health Equity And Structural Racism at ATS 2023
ARE PULSE OXIMETERS RACIST? WHAT I LEARNED ABOUT HEALTH EQUITY AND STRUCTURAL RACISM AT ATS 2023
On this episode I share some of what I learned about health equity and structural racism while at the American Thoracic Society conference in Washington, DC, with a focus on spirometry reference equations and pulse oximetry.
I mention several papers in this episode, here they are with their links.
