In the EXAKT study from the U.K., the home-use pulse oximeters assessed all gave higher oxygen saturation (SpO2) readings for patients with darker skin tones than for patients with lighter skin tones.
The SOFA-2 score included new definitions, new variables, and revised thresholds to categorize the severity of organ dysfunction in critical illness. The updates reflected changes in practice, ...
At 1 year after participants’ ICU stay for acute respiratory failure, mean DLCO was about 5% lower in those who had an ICU oxygenation target of 60 vs 90 mm Hg. Cognitive impairment levels among ...
O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar os efeitos agudos dos tipos de resposta à posição prona (PP) em pacientes acordados com COVID-19. Realizou-se um estudo prospectivo, unicêntrico, com 32 pacientes ...
In a recent study investigating the effects of prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) on reducing inspired oxygen concentration during one-lung ventilation (OLV), several key findings and outcomes were identified.
