Evaluation of the PaO2/FiO2 ratio after cardiac surgery as a predictor of outcome during hospital stay
BACKGROUND The arterial partial pressure of O2 and the fraction of inspired oxygen (PaO2/FiO2) ratio is widely used in ICUs as an indicator of oxygenation status. Although cardiac surgery and ICU scores can predict mortality, during the first hours after cardiac surgery few instruments are available to assess outcome. The aim of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of PaO2/FIO2 ratio to pr...
متن کاملEffects of Seasonal Variations on the Outcome of Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery
Background: For all the reports on the association between seasons and coronary artery disease, there is a paucity of information on the possible effects of seasonal variations on the outcome of patients after coronary artery bypass grafting surgery (CABG). The aim of this study was to assess the short-term outcome of post-CABG patients in the four different seasons to find any correlation betw...
متن کاملPredictive risk factors for pulmonary oxygen transfer in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting.
UNLABELLED The ratio of arterial oxygen tension to inspired oxygen fraction (PaO2/FiO2) is a useful indicator for weaning patients from mechanical ventilation and a reliable predictor of pulmonary dysfunction after cardiac surgery. The aim of this study was to elucidate the patient characteristics and variables that affect the PaO2/FiO2 ratio. Between 1994-1998, 167 patients who underwent coron...
متن کاملVentilation during cardiopulmonary bypass for prevention of respiratory insufficiency
BACKGROUND Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is necessary for most cardiac surgery, which may lead to postoperative lung injury. The objective of this paper is to systematically evaluate whether ventilation during CPB would benefit patients undergoing cardiac surgery. METHODS We searched randomized controlled trials (RCTs) through PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library from inception to October 2016...
متن کاملDoes Baseline Pao2/Fio2 Affect the In-Hospital Outcome in Patients Undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting?
Background: Oxygen saturation and the PaO2 are the direct risk factors for post -operative respiratory outcome in patients undergoing prolonged surgery under general anaesthesia. However the effect of preoperative PaO2 and PaO2/FiO2 ratio on the postoperative course of the patient undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting is not known. Hypothesis: Pre-operative PaO2 and PaO2/FiO 2 ratio have a...
