Masimo Announces New Study Demonstrates the Accuracy of Noninvasive and Continuous Hemoglobin Monitoring in Patients in Surgery and Intensive Care

Masimo MASI announced today that findings from a new study published in the American Journal of Surgery demonstrate that noninvasive and continuous hemoglobin monitoring correlates strongly with invasive laboratory hemoglobin testing and "can be beneficial in the operating room and critical care setting and may potentially decrease the invasiveness of both elective surgery and critical illness." This is the first study to examine the accuracy and reliability of Masimo SpHb for measuring hemoglobin and hemorrhage in both the operating room and intensive care unit.
