Subjects
Oxygen -- Physiological aspects, Critically ill -- Care and treatment -- Physiological aspects, Septic shock -- Physiological aspects -- Care and treatment, Health, Care and treatment, Physiological aspects
Abstract

Study objective: To investigate the frequency and extent of spontaneous changes ('events') in continuously measured mixed venous oxygen saturation ([SvO.sub.2]) in septic patients and to determine whether attention to individual [...]

2. Response of critically ill patients to treatment aimed at achieving supranormal oxygen delivery and consumption: relationship to outcome

Author

Hayes, Michelle A., Yau, Ernest H.S., Timmins, Andrew C., Hinds, Charles J., and Watson, David

Subjects
Oxygen -- Physiological aspects, Critically ill -- Care and treatment -- Physiological aspects, Health, Care and treatment, Physiological aspects
Abstract

Study objective: To evaluate the response to therapy aimed at achieving supranormal cardiac and oxygen transport variables (cardiac index [CI] >4.5 L/min/[m.sup.2], oxygen delivery [Do.sub.2] >600 ml/min/[m.sup.2], and oxygen consumption [...]

3. The dependency of oxygen consumption on oxygen delivery in critically ill postoperative patients is mimicked by variations in sedation

Author

Boyd, Owen, Grounds, Michael, and Bennett, David

Subjects
Oxygen -- Physiological aspects, Critically ill -- Care and treatment -- Physiological aspects, Health, Care and treatment, Physiological aspects
Abstract

The finding of a dependence of oxygen consumption on oxygen delivery in critically ill patients has encouraged intervention to increase oxygen delivery index ([DO.sub.2.I]) to overcome tissue hypoxia. In individuals [...]

4. Trending of oxygen utilization in the critically ill: is there a reliable method?

Author

Alex, Charles G.

Subjects
Oxygen -- Physiological aspects, Critically ill -- Care and treatment -- Physiological aspects, Health, Care and treatment, Physiological aspects
Abstract

Is There a Reliable Method? Goals in treating the critically ill patient are to maintain hemodynamic stability and to provide adequate oxygen transport commensurate with peripheral tissue oxygen requirements. Oxygen [...]
