Abstract | Background: In British Columbia, Canada, smoking is the most common modality of drug use among people who die of opioid toxicity. We aimed to assess oxygen saturation (SpO Methods: This was an observational cohort study, using a participatory design. We implemented our monitoring protocol from March to August 2021 at four OPS. We included adults (≥ 18 years) presenting to smoke opioids. A sensor taped to participants' fingers transmitted real-time SpO Results: We recorded 599 smoking events; 72.8% (436/599) had analyzable SpO Conclusions: Continuous pulse oximetry SpO |
