Performance of five pulse oximeters to detect hypoxaemia as an indicator of severe illness in children under five by frontline health workers in low resource settings – A prospective, multicentre, single-blinded, trial in Cambodia, Ethiopia, South Sudan, and Uganda

BACKGROUND: Low blood oxygen saturation (SpO(2)), or hypoxaemia, is an indicator of severe illness in children.
