NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Racial biases persist in the use of pulse oximetry devices for patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF) requiring very high levels of oxygen support, a ...

Abstract: This paper proposes a novel mathematical model that quantitatively defines the relationships between the arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2), the arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2) and ...

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, ...

What Is an Arterial Blood Gas Test (ABG)? An arterial blood gas (ABG) test measures oxygen and carbon dioxide levels in your blood. It also measures your body’s acid-base (pH) level, which is usually ...

Calculating the partial pressure of oxygen in arterial blood (PaO2) is an essential skill for medical professionals, especially in assessing a patient’s respiratory health. This article will provide a ...

The objective is to compare supine and prone positions in terms of arterial blood gas during lithotripsy endourology procedures in different stages. Cases of during lithotripsy endourology procedures ...

DKA is a complication of diabetes that can cause many symptoms. Various lab tests can confirm a diagnosis of DKA. These include ABG tests, which measure different components of the blood. In this ...

PaO2 is the partial pressure of oxygen in the blood that represents the overall oxygen content. It is different from SaO2 and SpO2 in that it measures how much oxygen is present, rather than the ...

Factors significantly associated with PaO2 levels at high altitudes included the individual’s age, target altitude, and time spent at an altitude of at least 1500 meters. In healthy adults who travel ...
