Cause of Low Arterial Oxygen Saturation in Pulmonary Fibrosis.
Since the description of 'alveolar-capillary block' by Austrian, McClement, Renzetti, Donald, Riley, and Cournand (1951), impairment of diffusion across the alveolar-capillary membrane has been regarded as an important factor in the production of low arterial oxygen saturations in patients with diffuse pulmonary disease. However, Luchsinger, Moser, Buhlmann, and Rossier (1957) suggested that re...
متن کاملThe Effect of Controlled Breathing Exercises on Anxiety and Arterial Oxygen Saturation in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Introduction: Anxiety is one of the common symptoms and complications in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease that increases readmission and decreases the quality of life in these patients. Objective: This study aimed to determine the effect of controlled breathing exercises on Anxiety and Arterial Oxygen Saturation in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in the intensive care u...
متن کاملpulse oximeter oxygen saturation in prediction of arterial oxygen saturation in liver transplant candidates
results roc-derived spo2 threshold of ≤ 94% can predict hypoxemia (pao2 < 60 mmhg) with a sensitivity of 100% and a specificity of 95%. furthermore, there are associations between the roc-derived spo2 threshold of ≤ 97% and detection of hypoxemia (pao2 < 70 mmhg) with a sensitivity of 100% and a specificity of 46%. the accuracy of pulse oximetry was not affected by the severity of liver disease...
متن کاملOxygen saturation in cystic fibrosis.
The availability of non-invasive oxygen saturation (SaO2) measurement could prove to be a useful tool for following up the progress of patients with cystic fibrosis. The present study was undertaken to compare its use with other routine measurements in the clinic. A total of 100 patients with cystic fibrosis were compared with 50 patients with stable asthma. The children were aged between 5 and...
متن کاملMeasurements of Cerebral Arterial Oxygen Saturation
This pilot investigation was undertaken to assess the performance of a novel fiber-optic cerebral pulse oximetry system. A fiber-optic probe designed to pass through the lumen of a cranial bolt of the type used to make intracranial pressure measurements was used to obtain optical reflectance signals directly from the brain tissue. Preliminary results from seven patients measured in the operatin...
