Masimo Corp. (NSDQ:MASI) announced positive results from a study on its carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning screening technology.
The Irvine, Calif.-based company reported that an independent study demonstrated that noninvasive Masimo carboxyhemoglobin (SpCO) measurements provide an "effective means for screening at-risk populations for CO poisoning" with "acceptable bias and precision" compared to invasive blood gas analysis. The results were published in the April issue of Annals of Emergency Medicine.
