Supplemental oxygen in patients with confirmed myocardial infarction has no clinical benefit irrespective of oxygen saturation levels at baseline, a new analysis of the Determination of the Role of ...

Previous studies have suggested that the incidence of retinopathy is lower in preterm infants with exposure to reduced levels of oxygenation than in those exposed to higher levels of oxygenation.

Supplemental oxygen therapy in patients with suspected or confirmed myocardial infarction and normal blood oxygen saturation levels is not associated with any clinical benefit, a new meta-analysis ...

Some persons have compared the SUPPORT study with studies in the 1950s in which oxygen delivery was restricted without measurement of oxygenation status; this restriction probably created hypoxia and ...

Babies whose oxygen saturation levels fluctuate widely and repeatedly are often called "swingers" by NICU nurses. Typically, these babies are on CPAP, a mode of respiratory support that is ...

By Dr. Liji Thomas, MD A major UK study shows that commonly used home pulse oximeters can overestimate oxygen levels in people with darker skin, increasing the risk of undetected hypoxemia and raising ...
