Risk factors for oxygen desaturation during sleep, after abdominal surgery.
The postoperative period after major abdominal surgery is known to be a period of increased episodic oxygen desaturation. In order to assess the risk factors for episodic desaturation, we have studied 29 surgical patients using pulse oximetry during the preoperative night (Npre) when they received benzodiazepine premedication and breathed air, and also during the first three nights after operat...
متن کاملArterial oxygen desaturation during esophagogastroduodenoscopy.
This prospective study evaluated the incidence and severity of arterial oxygen desaturation during esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) and assessed clinical factors in relation to arterial oxygen desaturation. Following pulmonary function testing, 192 patients underwent elective EGD with continuous recording of arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2). 62 patients (32.3%) showed arterial oxygen desaturat...
متن کاملOxygen desaturation during fiberoptic bronchoscopy.
A prospective study was performed to detect oxygen saturation (SaO2) during and following fiberoptic bronchoscopy (FOB) in 50 patients. Twenty-five patients (group 1) underwent the procedure without and 25 (group 2) with supplemental oxygen. The SaO2 declined from the baseline value of 96.4% to 92.08% in group 1 and to 94.88% in group 2 after bronchoscopy alone. The decline was also noted when ...
متن کاملSleep oxygen desaturation in late sequelae of pulmonary tuberculosis.
Thirty-eight patients with late sequelae of pulmonary tuberculosis (TB seq.) were studied to clarify the characteristics of sleep desaturation in comparison with 40 patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). While awake, the TB seq. group had a lower % VC and a higher PaCO2. In both groups, the sleep lowest SaO2 was positively correlated with the awake SaO2. The regression line...
متن کاملRole of lung volumes in sleep apnoea-related oxygen desaturation.
We studied the influence of lung volumes on apnoea-induced desaturation in ten subjects with sleep apnoea syndrome. Lung volumes were measured by helium dilution in the sitting and supine position and closing volume with the single-breath nitrogen washout test. To characterize the severity of apnoea-induced desaturations, we determined a desaturation curve for each patient. This curve was obtai...
