Oxygen prescription Oxygen should be prescribed to achieve a target saturation of 94–98% for most acutely ill patients or 88–92% for those at risk of hypercapnic respiratory failure (tables 1 – 3).

What happens inside your body when you're tired, out of breath, or oxygen-deprived? A new study by researchers at the ...

Objective To compare the effect of two different automated oxygen control devices on target range (TR) time and occurrence of hypoxaemic and hyperoxaemic episodes. Design Randomised cross-over study.

Pain avoidance as a key motivator: Numerous surveys in 2025 indicate that a major reason people avoid consistent health tracking is the pain associated with needles or invasive procedures. As a result ...

Objective: The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate that a new algorithm for estimating arterial oxygen saturation can be effective even with data corrupted by motion artifacts (MAs). Methods: ...

Spanian then asked the staff at the hotel to measure his oxygen saturation level, which clocked in at 83 percent—a dangerously low level. “I want to go down the mountain right now, I need to get out ...

Objective To test the hypothesis that a higher pulsoximetric arterial oxygen saturation (SpO2) target range is associated with reduced cerebral tissue oxygen desaturations from baseline during events ...

The oxygen saturation index (OSI) offers a promising non-invasive alternative by substituting pulse oximetry-derived oxygen saturation (SpO 2) for PaO 2 (Figure 2). By eliminating the need for ...

Blood oxygen saturation levels and altitude readings are the inputs and estimates of the level of hypoxia are the outputs. We develop new temporal evolution models for blood oxygen saturation and ...

The aims of this transversal study were to identify possible predictive factors of oxygen desaturation in patients undergoing ERCP under conscious sedation, analyzing the influence in the oxygen ...

In an Earth-sized take on the age-old ‘correlation or causality’ question, researchers have come across a fascinating match between Earth’s magnetic field and its oxygen levels si… ...

Human exposure to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) has gained worldwide attention due to their widespread presence in the environment and adverse health effects, but the exposure assessment ...
