Summary
Help us give every newborn the test that could save their life. Every year 1,000 babies leave hospital with their heart defect undetected, potentially putting their lives in grave danger. Our Test for Tommy Campaign will further improve early detection rates by placing pulse oximetry machines in maternity wards across the UK. Pulse Oximetry testing helps to detect heart defects by measuring oxygen levels (oxygen saturation) in the blood.
