Invasive mechanical ventilation in critically ill adults involves adjusting the fraction of inspired oxygen to maintain arterial oxygen saturation. The oxygen-saturation target that will optimize ...

The EXACT randomized trial found that patients having an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest and achieving the return of spontaneous circulation with an oxygen saturation of 90% to 94% did not have an ...

To analyze operative repair, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) and survival rates based on highest pre-ductal oxygen saturation (Pre-O 2 SAT) in a large infant cohort reported to Congenital ...

OBJECTIVE: Periodic breathing (PB) is a common respiratory pattern in preterm infants. Our aim was to determine the influence of PB on the pattern of oxygenation in preterm infants with significant PB ...

Oxygen saturation is a measure of the amount of hemoglobin that is bound to molecular oxygen at a given time point. It is an important parameter for managing patients in a clinical setup. Oxygen ...

Aims To determine reference values for oxygen saturation (SpO 2) among healthy children younger than 5 years living at moderately high altitude in Papua New Guinea and to determine other factors that ...

Oxygen saturation is an essential element in the management and understanding of patient care. Oxygen is tightly regulated within the body because hypoxemia can lead to many acute adverse effects on ...

Physiological studies have shown that chronic hypoxemia may occur in preterm infants who require supplemental oxygen for extended periods and that this hypoxemia may contribute to poor growth and ...

A comprehensive cohort study published in JAMA Network Open by Ashraf Fawzy and colleagues has unveiled a concerning phenomenon related to pulse oximeters and their implications for COVID-19 treatment ...
