Early prediction of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) after liver transplantation (LT) facilitates timely intervention. We aimed to develop a predictor of post-LT ARDS using machine learning ...
Introduction High-flow nasal oxygen (HFNO) use in adults hospitalised with acute respiratory failure (ARF) is increasing. However, evidence to support widespread use of HFNO compared with non-invasive ...
Exposure to hyperoxia, a high arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2), may be associated with worse outcomes in patients receiving extracorporeal membrane oxygenator (ECMO) support. We examined ...

One of the major roles of the lungs is to facilitate gas exchange between the circulatory system and the external environment. The lungs are composed of branching airways that terminate in respiratory ...
Background: A major contributor to unfavorable outcome after traumatic brain injury (TBI) is secondary brain injury. Low brain tissue oxygen tension (PbtO2) has shown to be an independent predictor of ...
In the past blood gas analysis and interpretation was performed primarily at university and large referral hospitals. In the past blood gas analysis and interpretation was performed primarily at ...
