IntroducciÓn: Se estima que existe variabilidad en la medición de la saturación parcial de oxígeno entre distintos oxímetros de pulso.

Objetivo: Conocer la variabilidad de la medición de acuerdo con el oxímetro de pulso utilizado en la práctica clínica.

Material Y MÉtodos: Diseño transversal, sujetos consecutivos. Se obtuvieron variables demográficas, ocupación y enfermedad. Se estimaron las diferencias en la variabilidad de tres oxímetros de pulso. Las variables nominales se informaron con frecuencias y porcentajes; las numéricas, con promedios y desviación estándar. La variabilidad se calculó con el estadístico de Bland-Altman y su magnitud con el coeficiente de correlación intraclase (intervalo de confianza del 95%).

Resultados: Se estudiaron 255 pacientes con una edad promedio de 61 ± 15 años y un índice de masa corporal de 30.28 ± 6.59 kg/m2, de los cuales 145 (56.8%) fueron mujeres y 136 (53.33%) tuvieron hábito tabáquico. La ocupación y la enfermedad con mayor frecuencia fueron obrero (98; 38.43%) y enfermedad pulmonar obstructiva crónica (143; 56.08%). El promedio grupal de saturación arterial de oxígeno frente a saturación parcial de oxígeno fue de 91.28 ± 4.07% frente a 90.64 ± 3.89% (p < 0.0001). La diferencia media (límites de acuerdo) y el coeficiente de correlación intraclase (intervalo de confianza del 95%) fueron, respectivamente, para los tres oxímetros: Onyx II -0.5 (3.4, -4.3) y 0.949 (0.935, 0.960), Hergom 0.2 (3.4, -2.9) y 0.951 (0.937, 0.962), y Rossmax SB220 -1.6 (36.2, -39.5) y 0.784 (0.724, 0.831).

Conclusiones: Los oxímetros de pulso Onyx II y Hergom tuvieron menor variabilidad, mientras que el Rossmax SB220 la tuvo muy amplia, por lo que no resulta aconsejable para uso clínico.

Background: It may be estimated certain variability in the measurement of partial oxygen saturation between pulse oximeters.

Objective: Describe the variability of partial oxygen saturation obtained from three different pulse oximeters.

Material And Methods: Cross design, consecutive subjects. Data related to demographic variables, occupation, diseases and differences in variability of three pulse oximeters was obtained. Nominal variables were reported with frequencies and percentages, numerical with averages and standard deviation; the variability was calculated with the Bland-Altman statistic and its magnitude with the intraclass correlation coefficient (95% confidence interval).

Results: The 255 patients studied were aged between 61 ± 15 years, body mass index ranked 30.28 ± 6.59 kg/m2, 145 (56.8%) were female and 136 (53.33%) had tobacco smoking habit. The most frequent occupation were worker (98; 38.43%), and disease chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (143; 56.08%). Group average of arterial oxygen saturation vs. partial oxygen saturation: 91.28 ± 4.07% vs. 90.64 ± 3.89% (p < 0.0001). For the three oxymeters, the mean difference (limits of agreement) and the intraclass correlation coefficient (95% confidence interval) were respectively: Onyx-II −0.5 (3.4, −4.3), 0.949 (0.935, 0.960), Hergom 0.2 (3.4, −2.9), 0.951 (0.937, 0.962) and Rossmax SB220 −1.6 (36.2, −39.5), 0.784 (0.724, 0.831).

Conclusions: Onyx II and Hergom pulse oximeters had low variability, while SB220 showed ample variability and it is therefore, not advisable to use in clinical practice.

Reimagining apnea monitoring in the neonatal ICU.

Division of Neonatology, Montreal Children's Hospital, McGill University Health Center, Montreal, Quebec, Canada.

Purpose Of Review: This review outlines the prevalence and complications of apneas and intermittent hypoxemic events in preterm infants, examines current monitoring limitations in neonatal ICUs (NICUs), and explores emerging technologies addressing these challenges.

Recent Findings: New evidence from the Prematurity-Related Ventilatory Control (Pre-Vent) study, which analyzed cardiorespiratory data from 717 extremely preterm infants, exposes the varying frequency, duration, and severity of apneas, intermittent hypoxemia, bradycardias, and periodic breathing during hospitalization, and highlights the negative impact of intermittent hypoxemia on pulmonary outcomes at discharge. Although traditional monitoring methods cannot differentiate between apnea types and quantify their burden, recent advancements in sensor technologies and data integration hold promise for improving real-time detection and evaluation of apneas in the NICU.

Objective: Evaluation of the effectiveness of vestibuloplasty according to microhemodynamics and oxygenation in the mucous membrane of the alveolar ridge.

Materials And Methods: To achieve this goal, a clinical and functional study was carried out in the mucous membrane of the alveolar ridge after vestibuloplasty in 80 patients (35 men and 45 women) aged from 18 to 65 years, average age 41.5±1.

Background: Accurate assessment of oxygen delivery relative to oxygen demand is crucial in the care of a critically ill patient. The central venous oxygen saturation (Svo) enables an estimate of cardiac output yet obtaining these clinical data requires invasive procedures and repeated blood sampling. Interpretation remains subjective and vulnerable to error.

Background: Increased attention has been focused on the association of periodontal disease with cardio-metabolic syndrome. Although the associations are multi-factorial, very few studies have explored the role of lipoprotein Apo A1 and Apo B100 with chronic periodontitis. Additionally, obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), a chronic multi-factorial respiratory disease, consists of a temporary decrease or cessation of breath for ≥ 10 seconds and leads to a reduction in blood oxygen saturation of more than 3% to 4% and/or neurological arousal.
