Incubator oxygen concentrations during free flow oxygen treatment

Evaluation of adherence to oxygen therapy standards before, during and after oxygen hood administration

Background and Purpose: Oxygen therapy is one of the common treatments for neonates with cardiopulmonary disease. The aim of this study was to evaluate adherence to oxygen therapy standards by nurses before, during and after using oxygen hood. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 250 cases of nursing care were evaluated before, during and after administration of oxygen hood therapy in pre...

Respiratory oxygen consumption among groups of Pseudocrenilabrus multicolor victoriae subjected to different oxygen concentrations during development

The routine metabolic rate of Pseudocrenilabrus multicolor victoriae, laboratory-reared, F1 offspring of parents collected from a hypoxic swamp, did not differ between sibs raised under normoxia and hypoxia. In the offspring of parents originating from a river where the oxygen levels were generally high but fluctuating, the metabolic rate of fish raised under normoxia was higher than for sibs r...

Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide Concentrations in Oxygen Tents.

Evaluation of oxygen requirement in patients during fiberoptic bronchoscopy

Background: Sometimes oxygen is given to patients during fiberoptic bronchoscopy to prevent arterial hypoxemia, but oxygen usually is given to patients with SPO2 less than 90%. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the patient's oxygen requirement according to SPO2 and its relationship with Pulmonary Function Test (PFT). Methods: From January 2006 to April 2007, 146 patients who needed fibe...

Non-polydimethylsiloxane devices for oxygen-free flow lithography.

Flow lithography has become a powerful particle synthesis technique. Currently, flow lithography relies on the use of polydimethylsiloxane microchannels, because the process requires local inhibition of polymerization, near channel interfaces, via oxygen permeation. The dependence on polydimethylsiloxane devices greatly limits the range of precursor materials that can be processed in flow litho...
