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 ...

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 ...

Discrepancies between pulse oximetry and arterial oxygen saturation can pose challenges in clinical assessment. Possible underlying causes include poor peripheral perfusion, skin pigmentation, motion ...

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is globally the third leading cause of death, causing 3.23 million deaths in 2019. Most feasible way to measure oxygen saturation is by pulse oximetry ...

Exposure to hyperoxia, a high arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2), may be associated with worse outcomes in patients receiving extracorporeal membrane oxygenator (ECMO) support. We examined ...

Hepatitis A and hepatitis B are viral liver infections. They have similar symptoms but different modes of transmission and potential complications. A person can prevent both viruses through ...

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 ...

Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) measurement of regional cerebral tissue oxygen saturation (rcStO2) has become a topic of high interest in neonatology. Multiple studies have demonstrated that rcStO2 ...

Abstract: The paper proposes the diagnosis of Sleep Apnea Hypopnea Syndrome (SAHS) only using snore sound and SaO2 signals. The time-frequency characteristics of snore sound signal are extracted to ...
