Oxygen is vital for wound healing, so oxygen measurements should to be taken as predictive values for wound healing in patients. When measuring oxygen at the wound bed, there is potentially a risk of cross\u2010infection if no protective barrier is used; and skin stripping if an adhesive barrier is used on the wound bed. This cross sectional within subject repeated measures pilot study, aims to determine if the application of opsite film, as an infection control measure, in one or two layers, impacts on tissue oxygenation readings obtained when using the MoorVMS\u2010OXY.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Mean oxygen saturation percentages were measured from 29 limbs of 18 healthy participants. Oxygen saturation was measured for 20\u2009s and analysed at the first metatarsophalangeal joint using no film, one and two layers using the MoorVMS\u2010OXY. A one\u2010way repeated ANOVA with a Bonferroni post hoc test was performed to test for statistically significant differences between the values of the three parameters and multiple pairwise comparisons was completed.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Amongst the three layers, there was a statistically significant difference in oxygen saturation between the two layers of Opsite Flexigrid and none; and also between the two layers of Flexigrid and single layer (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.05). It was also established that there was no statistically significant difference between the single layer of Opsite Flexigrid and no Flexigrid layer (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&gt;\u20090.05).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>The results imply that one layer of Opsite Flexigrid is a suitable protective barrier to use when establishing capillary bed oxygen perfusion with the MoorVMS\u2010OXY. However, the application of two Opsite Flexigrid layers, to prevent skin stripping, decreases the recorded values of oxygen saturation percentages significantly, therefore providing inaccurate results. Indicating that a double layer cannot be used over ulceration sites if measuring oxygen levels at the wound bed.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1186\/s13047-020-00391-2","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,5,12]],"date-time":"2020-05-12T09:04:16Z","timestamp":1589274256000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Does the application of Opsite<sup>\u22c4<\/sup> Flexigrid<sup>\u22c4<\/sup> occlude the oxygen saturation readings in healthy individuals using the moorVMS\u2010OXY machine?"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"A.","family":"Beaumont","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for Regenerative Medicine and Devices University of Brighton 49 Darley Road BN20 7UR Eastbourne UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"L.","family":"McSorley","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for Regenerative Medicine and Devices University of Brighton 49 Darley Road BN20 7UR Eastbourne UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"M.","family":"Matthews","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for Regenerative Medicine and Devices University of Brighton 49 Darley Road BN20 7UR Eastbourne UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"K.","family":"Mooneesawmy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for Regenerative Medicine and Devices University of Brighton 49 Darley Road BN20 7UR Eastbourne UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"L.","family":"Little","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for Regenerative Medicine and Devices University of Brighton 49 Darley Road BN20 7UR Eastbourne UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7098-9710","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"J.
