Objectives COVID-19 causes lung parenchymal and endothelial damage that lead to hypoxic acute respiratory failure (hARF). The influence of hARF severity on patients’ outcomes is still poorly ...

PaO2/FiO2 ratio and NT-proBNP were assessed at baseline, 24 hours, 3 days, and 7 days, while mPAP was measured at baseline, 24 hours, and 7 days. Safety endpoints included mortality, hemodynamic ...

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 ...

Introduction Hypoxic challenge test consisting of breathing 15% FiO2 for 20 min with blood gas measurements is recommended by BTS guidelines for the assessment of the requirement for in-flight oxygen.

The P/F ratio, also known as the PaO2/FiO2 ratio, is a valuable tool for evaluating oxygenation status in critically ill patients. It is commonly used to determine the severity of acute respiratory ...

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 ...
