Randomized Controlled TrialEffectiveness of the oxygen reserve index in detecting and preventing hyperoxia in critically ill patients on mechanical ventilation: a randomized controlled trial.
To assess the effectiveness of fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) titration guided by oxygen reserve index (ORi) in preventing hyperoxia in intensive care unit (ICU) patients receiving mechanical ventilator support. ⋯ FiO2 titration guided by ORi+SpO2 effectively prevents hyperoxia and reduces the exposure time to hyperoxia in critically ill patients.
