Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Patient provider experience survey score [Once after completion of device use (up to 15 minutes to complete the survey)]
Five questions related to satisfaction with experience using home pulse oximetry, each on a scale of 1 (poor) to 5 (excellent) summed and averaged for an overall range of 1 to 5 (higher scores = better experience).
- Provider experience survey score [Once after completion of device use (up to 15 minutes to complete the survey)]
Four questions related to satisfaction with experience using home pulse oximetry, each on a scale of 1 (poor) to 5 (excellent) summed and averaged for an overall range of 1 to 4 (higher scores = better experience).
- Use of personal protective improvement [6 months]
Level of personal protective improvement in an in-patient setting.
- Number of in-patient encounters with COVID patients as a measure of provider exposure to high risk illness [6 months]
