Have you ever had the experience where a patient you thought was fine because their SpO2 was 95% suddenly deteriorated the next morning? In respiratory rehabilitation, while many say they are ...

Quickly measured without a blood draw, pulse oximetry or SpO2 indicates the estimated oxygen saturation of red blood cells. It is an indirect measure, calculated through a clip-on fingertip device ...

What this study adds? The proportion of time spent in target SpO2 range were similar in volume guarantee (VG) and volume controlled ventilation (VCV) arm when used along with A-FiO2. There was no ...

In the context of an ongoing debate on the potential risks of hypoxemia and hyperoxemia, it seems prudent to maintain the partial arterial oxygen pressure (PaO2) in a physiological range during ...

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

Managing the oxygen saturation of preterm infants to a target range has been the standard of care for a decade. Changes in target ranges have been shown to significantly impact mortality and morbidity ...

Normal blood oxygen levels mean that there is enough oxygen in your red blood cells to keep your vital organs and tissues functioning properly. You can easily check your blood oxygen levels with an ...

Introduction and Objectives The harms of hyperoxia are well recognised in COPD, with recommended peripheral oxygen saturations (SpO2) of 88–92%. Despite this, there is ongoing harm from excessive ...

In a landmark achievement, DRDO's Defence Bio-Engineering & Electro Medical Laboratory (DEBEL), Bengaluru has developed a SpO2 (Blood Oxygen Saturation) Supplemental Oxygen Delivery System. The ...
