The investigators will evaluate the feasibility of a fully randomized validation trial for the Oxalert EPO. All patients will wear the Oxalert for 24 hours preoperatively in the monitoring only mode (no alerts), throughout hospitalization up to six days, and for 24 post-discharge hours. Randomization will be to Oxalert in monitor-only mode or to its normal mode which provides progressive audible and tactile alerts for hypoxemia.
