Investigators are conducting research about oxygen levels in the body and whether it is
possible to use a device to measure oxygen in the body's tissues noninvasively, without
blood draws or a catheter (a plastic tube placed in a vein). Investigators would like to
know how this device compares to standard measurements using blood from a catheter. This may
help treat patients who may not be getting enough oxygen to their body.
