Chronic or acute hyperoxia gives a limit to the depth of use of the diluant. |
Some have advocated adjusting the oxygen supply according to pulse oximetry measurements to avoid hyperoxia, but there is insufficient evidence to determine the appropriate oximetry goal. |
We investigated the influence of hyperoxia on O2 uptake in tetanically contracting canine gastrocnemius. |
Exposing the infant to more than 95 percent inspired oxygen in an oxygen hood for 30 minutes is an acceptable hyperoxia test. |
Consequently a diluant flush will be unable to reduce the PpO2 in the loop in case of threatening hyperoxia. |
SpO2 was maintained under hyperoxia conditions, while it decreased under normoxia conditions. |
