Great work by the team assessing the value of pulse oximetry in Covid patients isolating at home. Turns out pulse ox monitoring doesn't improve clinical outcomes when compared to a simpler text message check-in program.

Pulse oximeters are widely used to monitor for low oxygen levels among #Covid19 patients at home. But does pulse oximetry improve outcomes over monitoring for symptoms of shortness of breath? Our team provides some answers today in @NEJM 🧵👇 nejm.org/doi/full/10.10… #SGIM22

Mini thread on the choice of pulse oximetry thresholds and management protocols from our @NEJM RCT with @katleemd @AnnaUma @khchaiyachati nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…

@danielgoyal @EricTopol @NEJM Thanks @danielgoyal! Team effort. Good question. Before launch, the algorithm was was iteratively refined by @katleemd based on patient responses. First, this was an ambulatory sat (not resting sat)...

1/ It's hard to overstate @katleemd's contributions to @PennMedicine and the local Philadelphia community during the #Covid19 pandemic. Yes, she led the implementation of this @NEJM RCT, but there's so much more...thread below 👇 twitter.com/katleemd/statu…

Supplementing #covid19 monitoring with pulse oximetry did not improve outcomes, an RCT shows. @kit_delgadoMD breaks it down in this excellent thread.

Important new trial shows that "Among patients with Covid-19, the addition of home pulse oximetry to remote monitoring did not result in a greater number of days alive and out of the hospital than subjective assessments of dyspnea alone." #MedTwitter 👉nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…
