 Masimo Corporation supplied, on loan, the pulse oximeters and saturation probes used in this study. The study investigators chose to use the Masimo pulse oximeters because of the favorable performance profile for infants in the literature. They did not receive any monetary compensation from Masimo and retain ownership and full rights over the data and decisions regarding publication. Masimo was in no way involved in the data collection, study analyses, study design, or preparation of the manuscript. The first draft of the manuscript was written by Yacov Rabi and Sophie Chen (Methods and Results), Wendy Yee (Introduction), and Nalini Singhal (Discussion). All 4 authors contributed to all sections of the second draft.
