The Nature Index 2025 Research Leaders — previously known as Annual Tables — reveal the leading institutions and countries/territories in the natural and health sciences, according to their output in ...

1 Department of Anaesthesia and Intensive Care, University of Kinshasa, Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of the Congo. 2 Resuscitation Department, Sens Hospital, Sens, France. 3 Department of Anaesthesia ...

The pulse-oximetric peripheral oxygen saturation to a fraction of inspired oxygen (SpO 2 /FiO 2) ratio has been suggested as an additional hypoxemia criterion in the new global acute respiratory ...

Lung ultrasound is a developing and beneficial method for identifying compromised alveolar air and the presence of interstitial and alveolar fluid. It assesses lung aeration beyond the pleura and can ...

The following is a summary of “Prognostic value of PaO2/FiO2 ratio in predicting clinical outcomes in COVID-19 patients,” published in the June 2024 issue of Critical Care by Canto-Costal et al.

Introduction The use of fibrinolytic therapy has been proposed in severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). During the COVID-19 pandemic, anticoagulation has received special attention due to ...

ABSTRACT: Background: Recombinant human soluble thrombomodulin (rhTM) was approved for the treatment of disseminated intravascular coagulation in Japan, and rhTM has anti-inflammatory effects.

The PF ratio (PaO2/FiO2 ratio) is an essential indicator used in medicine to gauge the severity of a patient’s hypoxemic respiratory failure. This value helps healthcare professionals determine ...

The P/F ratio, also known as the PaO2/FiO2 ratio, is a valuable tool for evaluating oxygenation status in critically ill patients. It is commonly used to determine the severity of acute respiratory ...

Background: Previous studies usually identified patients who benefit the most from prone positioning by oxygenation improvement. However, inconsistent results have been reported. Physiologically, ...
