Filter by:In patients under general anesthesia, the oxygen level (FiO2) used in inspiration is usually adjusted by monitoring the peripheral oxygen saturation level (SpO2). As a non-invasive method, SpO2 monitoring is known as one of the required methods that can be used to adjust FiO2 and detect and treat hypoxemia. While SpO2 approaching 100% matches the value of 128 mmHg in arterial partial oxygen pressure (PaO2), in cases where PaO2 increases more, the investigators cannot follow this situation with SpO2 and cannot prevent hyperoxemia. As stated in the literature, hyperoxemia has positive effects in general anesthesia and intensive care, as well as negative effects such as increased inflammation, oxidative stress and ischemia-reperfusion. In addition, acute lung injury, development of atelectasis, increased mortality, and critical illness rates have been associated with hyperoxemia in many publications. The only way the investigators can use to measure the level of hyperoxemia seems to be arterial blood gas analysis, and this method limits the investigators use because it is invasive. The Oxygen Reserve Index (ORi™) (Masimo Corp., Irvine, CA, USA) is a variable related to real-time oxygenation reserve status in the mildly hyperoxemic range (approximately 100 - 200 mmHg PaO2). ORi can be defined as a multi-wavelength, noninvasive pulse co-oximetry sensor. ORi is a dimensionless index ranging from 0.00 (no reserve) to 1.00 (maximum reserve) depending on the oxygenation reserve status. There are very few studies in the literature using ORi to detect hyperoxemia. The investigators thought that if FiO2 levels used in preoxygenation, anesthesia maintenance and recovery stages in day surgeries were correlated with ORi levels, a threshold value could be determined for FiO2 levels during anesthesia stages in cases where invasive arterial blood gas could not be followed. This study aims to determine the relationship between SpO2, FiO2 and ORi during general anesthesia, to investigate the usefulness of ORi in determining the FiO2 threshold value during anesthesia stages as an indicator of hyperoxemia, and to investigate the effects of these values on the hemodynamics, recovery, agitation and nausea-vomiting states of the patients.
In patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF), High Flow Nasal Therapy (HFNT) improves oxygenation, tolerance, and decrease work of breathing as compared to standard oxygen therapy by facemask. Current guidelines recommend adjusting oxygen flow rates to keep the oxygen saturation measured by pulse oximetry (SpO2) in the target range and avoid hypoxemia and hyperoxemia. The hypothesis of the study is that closed loop oxygen control increases the time spent within clinically targeted SpO2 ranges and decreases the time spent outside clinical target SpO2 ranges as compared to manual oxygen control in ICU patients treated with HFNT.
Excessive oxygen administration is known to cause oxidative stress, and absorption atelectasis. Hyperoxia is very common in general anesthesia settings. Even though there are concerns in using excessive oxygen during general anesthesia, the optimal fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) for general anesthesia is not well studied. The oxygen reserve index (ORI) is a parameter which can evaluate partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2) rating from 0 to 1. There are growing evidences in ORI that it might be helpful to reduce hyperoxia in critically ill patients in the intensive care unit, as well as in general anesthesia. The aim of this study is to evaluate efficacy of oxygen reserve index to reduce hyperoxemia in major abdominal surgery.
