DESCRIPTION:\n	This webinar from the Institute of Global Health Innovati
	on explores the safety\, effectiveness and global relevance of pulse oxime
	try for at-home monitoring of Covid-19. \n\n\n\n	Pulse oximeters are bein
	g explored as a tool for people with COVID-19 to keep an eye on their heal
	th at home\, away from healthcare settings. These are widely available\, l
	ow-cost devices that shine light through a person’s finger to assess the
	ir blood oxygen saturation. Evidence has shown that a fall in blood oxygen
	 levels is a critical indicator that a COVID-19 patient’s health is dete
	riorating and they may need closer monitoring and urgent treatment.\n\n\n\
	n	But what is the evidence surrounding their effectiveness\, and are they 
	a safe way for people to monitor themselves at home?\n\n\n\n	Join our webi
	nar as we explore these important questions while discussing their applica
	tions in the UK health system and globally\, with particular attention to 
	their relevance in low- and middle-income countries. We will also discuss 
	findings of the ongoing NHS COVID Oximetry at Home (CO@H) programme\, whic
	h supports people at home who have been diagnosed with coronavirus and are
	 most at risk of becoming seriously unwell.\n\n\n\n	This virtual event wil
	l consist of a series of short talks by experts from IGHI followed by a li
	ve audience Q&amp\;A\, giving you the chance to ask any questions you may 
	have.\n\n\n\n	Speakers\n\n\n\n	\n		Professor the Lord Ara Darzi\, IGHI co-
