Transesophageal echocardiography: not for everyone?
Transesophageal Echocardiography: Not for Everyone? To the Editor: We read with interest the article by de Bruijn et al comparing transesophageal and transthoracic echocardiography (TEE versus TEE) for the evaluation of TIA or stroke.1 We congratulate the investigators on this important study. TEE proved superior to TTE for identification of a cardiac embolic source in patients with TIA or stro...
متن کاملpulse oximeter oxygen saturation in prediction of arterial oxygen saturation in liver transplant candidates
results roc-derived spo2 threshold of ≤ 94% can predict hypoxemia (pao2 < 60 mmhg) with a sensitivity of 100% and a specificity of 95%. furthermore, there are associations between the roc-derived spo2 threshold of ≤ 97% and detection of hypoxemia (pao2 < 70 mmhg) with a sensitivity of 100% and a specificity of 46%. the accuracy of pulse oximetry was not affected by the severity of liver disease...
متن کاملPrediction of acute mountain sickness by monitoring arterial oxygen saturation during ascent.
Acute mountain sickness (AMS) is a common problem while ascending at high altitude. AMS may progress rapidly to fatal results if the acclimatization process fails or symptoms are neglected and the ascent continues. Extensively reduced arterial oxygen saturation at rest (R-Spo₂) has been proposed as an indicator of inadequate acclimatization and impending AMS. We hypothesized that climbers less ...
متن کاملArterial Blood Oxygen Saturation during Blood Pressure Cuff-induced Hypoperfusion
Pulse oximetry has been one of the most significant technological advances in clinical monitoring in the last two decades. Pulse oximetry is a non-invasive photometric technique that provides information about the arterial blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) and heart rate, and has widespread clinical applications. When peripheral perfusion is poor, as in states of hypovolaemia, hypothermia and vaso...
متن کاملArterial oxygen saturation during bronchography via the fibreoptic bronchoscope.
Bronchography is indicated in the investigation of recurrent or chronic respiratory infection and haemoptysis,1 and is used to assess the extent and location of suspected or known bronchiectasis.2 Use ofthe fibreoptic bronchoscope to introduce contrast medium has the advantages over the conventional nasotracheal catheter of allowing inspection of the airways for any occluding lesion and collect...
