Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess how well the ROX index, calculated during mechanical ventilation, can predict a patient's readiness for weaning, success in spontaneous breathing trials (SBT), extubation success, and overall mortality.
- Researchers calculated the ROX index using various measures (SpO2, PaO2, SaO2) and found that ROX values derived from PaO2 were the most effective in predicting weaning readiness and outcomes.
- The study involved 107 patients, with findings suggesting that using the ROX index may improve assessments related to weaning processes, though more extensive research is needed for confirmation.
Background: Recent literature suggests that the respiratory rate oxygenation (ROX) index may be a useful parameter in predicting intubation indication in hypoxemic patients.
Objective: In this study, we evaluated the accuracy of the ROX index in predicting intubation, length of stay in the ICU, and mortality in ICU patients with hypoxemic respiratory failure with and without hypercapnia.
Methods: Single-centre retrospective cohort study of 290 patients, with a preliminary diagnosis of respiratory failure, who were treated with low flow oxygen systems.
Background: Surgical management of breast cancer has drastically changed. Breast-conserving surgery (BCS) has now become a commonly used method for its treatment. Oncoplastic techniques are widely applied with satisfactory aesthetic results.
