Host: Shira Johnson, MD
A simple medical device such as an oxygen saturation monitor can make all the difference in a developing country. Dr. Trevor Duke, an intensive care specialist at Royal Children's Hospital in Melbourne, Australia, talks about his study which reduced the death rate from pneumonia in New Guinea by measuring oxygen saturation and administrating oxygen through a concentrator. He and host Dr Shira Johnson discuss this study and his work with the World Health Organization.
