STUDY #2: accuracy of the PRONTO-7 pulse co-oximeter IN OUTPATIENT SETTING<br />
Methods<br />
All data was collected under institutional review board approval and all patients provided written, informed<br />
consent. Study subjects were adult and pediatric patients presenting to two outpatient clinics and one health screening<br />
event. Following written informed consent, patient demographics (age, gender, body mass index, ethnicity, smoking<br />
status, and skin pigmentation), medical condition, and medications were recorded for each patient. The Massey and<br />
Martin NIS Skin Color Scale 7 was used to categorize skin pigmentation with light pigmentation considered to be 1-3,<br />
medium pigmentation 4-7, and dark pigmentation 8-10. Following measurement and recording of finger diameter, a<br />
noninvasive hemoglobin test device (<strong>Pronto</strong>-7, <strong>Masimo</strong> Corporation, Irvine CA) with a reusable finger clip sensor (rainbow<br />
4D) was placed on the patient’s non-dominant ring finger. The sensor was covered with an opaque shield to prevent
