RAPID PULSE OXIMETRY INTERPRETATION
RAPID PULSE OXIMETRY INTERPRETATION
PulseOx aids in the rapid and accurate interpretation of pulse oximetry findings obtained as part of newborn screening for critical congenital heart disease (CCHD).

Roughly 7,200 babies are born with a Critical Congenital Heart Defect (CCHD) each year
In 2011, pulse oximetry screening was recommended to improve the detection of critical congenital heart defects (CCHD) in newborns.
Approximately 4 million infants are screened for CCHD in the United States each year.
This application was developed by Children's Healthcare of Atlanta to aid healthcare professionals in implementing pulse oximetry screening in the newborn nursery
