Assessing the incidence of hyperoxia and the effectiveness of Oxygen Reserve Index-guided FiO2 titration in hyperoxia prevention.

Background: Although pulse oximetry technology, which is considered the standard of care to ensure optimum oxygenation, is indispensable in clinical practice, especially in the detection of hypoxemia, it has some limitations in the detection of hyperoxemia. Oxygen Reserve Index can provide clinicians with a crucial pathway in detecting and preventing hyperoxia, noninvasively.
