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 ...

If someone’s blood oxygen level falls below 60 mm Hg, there may not be enough oxygen reaching the body’s vital organs. This can lead to symptoms such as shortness of breath and dizziness. This article ...

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 ...

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.

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 ...

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 ...

When a critically injured patient is admitted to the hospital, how much supplemental oxygen should they receive? New research published this week in JAMA Network Open led by investigators at the ...

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 ...
