Continuous pulse oximetry (oxygen saturation [Spo 2 ]) monitoring in hospitalized children with bronchiolitis not requiring supplemental oxygen is discouraged by national guidelines, but determining monitoring status accurately requires in-person observation. Our objective was to determine if electronic health record (EHR) data can accurately estimate the extent of actual Spo 2 monitoring use in bronchiolitis.
