Introduction Targeted oxygenation protocols in mechanically ventilated patients are critical in avoiding the deleterious effects of hypoxaemia and hyperoxaemia. Peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) is ...

Oxygen is the most common drug used in the neonatal intensive care. It has a narrow therapeutic range in preterm infants. Too high (hyperoxemia) or low oxygen (hypoxemia) is associated with adverse ...

“The P/F ratio is written in the chart, but I can't remember how dangerous this level is right now...” “Before taking a patient for a walk in the ward, I checked the remaining oxygen level, but I ...

The SpO₂/FiO₂ ratio has been proposed as an alternative hypoxemia criterion for diagnosing ARDS, particularly in resource-limited settings where arterial blood gas (ABG) analysis is not readily ...

Objective To investigate the efficacy of automated control of inspired oxygen (FiO2) by Predictive Intelligent Control of Oxygenation (PRICO) on the Fabian ventilator in maintaining oxygen saturation ...

I am writing this to express my concern about the appropriateness, or lack thereof, of using PaO2/FiO2 (PF ratio) as a metric to quantify gas-exchange and lung disease in general. I believe that this ...

ABSTRACT: Importance: The best respiratory support technique to reduce intubation and mortality in patients with respiratory failure due to COVID-19 is controversial. Objective: To determine the ...

We considered SpO2 >98% as hyperoxaemia in the study as is reported in nearly all the studies with A-FiO2 and also the likelihood of PaO2 being >99 mm Hg (>13.2 kPa) is marked with SpO2 >98% in ...

This cohort study included infants ≤28 weeks’ gestation across nine hospitals from 2020 to 2022. Death and / or severe intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) were compared between infants with 5-min SpO2 < ...

This project aims to predict PaO2 values based on SpO2 and other patient data. The dataset used are extracted from MIMIC III database. There are two scripts in this project: Regressor: Predict PaO2 ...
