Critically ill patients in emergency department may be characterized by low amplitude and high variability of amplitude of pulse photoplethysmography
BACKGROUND The aim of the present pilot study was to determine if pulse photoplethysmography amplitude (PPGA) could be used as an indicator of critical illness and as a predictor of higher need of care in emergency department patients. METHODS This was a prospective observational study. We collected vital signs and one minute of pulse photoplethysmograph signal from 251 consecutive patients a...
متن کاملPulse Transit Time Variability versus Heart Rate Variability during Decreases in the Amplitude fluctuations of Photoplethysmography signal
An analysis of the pulse transit time variability (PTTV) and HRV during decreases in the amplitude fluctuations of photoplethysmography (DAP) events, and their relationship with sleep apnea events is presented. 268 selected DAP events were extracted from complete night polysomnography recordings from 21 children and classified in 5 groups depending on oxygen saturation and respiratory behaviour...
متن کاملEmergency team calls for critically ill non-trauma patients in the emergency department: an observational study
BACKGROUND Handling critically ill patients is a complex task for Emergency Department (ED) personnel. Initial treatment is of major importance and requires adequately experienced ED doctors to initiate and decide for the right medical or surgical treatment. Our aim was, with regard to clinical presentation, management and mortality to describe adult non-trauma patients that upon ED arrival eli...
