This trial is testing whether different oxygen monitors — made by companies like General Electric, Medtronic, Masimo, and Nonin — give accurate readings when measuring how much oxygen is in your blood. Doctors use these readings to decide how much oxygen you need. The study will compare what each monitor shows with the actual oxygen level in your blood (checked through an existing arterial line), to see which monitors are most reliable and accurate.
Right now, hospitals use different oxygen monitors, but there's no clear information about how much they vary from each other or how accurate each one is. This means doctors may be making oxygen therapy decisions based on readings that aren't as precise as they should be. This study will help create better guidelines so all hospitals can give oxygen therapy more safely and effectively.

You would be monitored while you're already in the intensive care unit receiving oxygen therapy. The researchers would place several different oxygen monitors on your finger at the same time to record their readings, and compare those readings to your actual blood oxygen level (obtained from your existing arterial line). The study involves no additional procedures or visits beyond what you're already receiving as part of your ICU care.
