“…It was not practical to perform invasive PaO 2 measurements on children with bronchiolitis who were not in intensive care. TcPO 2 has been shown to be a reliable indicator of arterial oxygen tension within a certain range of PaO 2 values in children and adults 6–13 …”

“…TcPO 2 has been shown to be a reliable indicator of arterial oxygen tension within a certain range of PaO 2 values in children and adults. [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13] Oxyhaemoglobin saturation values were poor predictors of change at high tcPO 2 levels, and decreased more dramatically with lower tcPO 2 levels. This follows the oxygen dissociation curve.…”
In this study, it was not possible to estimate FiO(2) reliably from nasal oxygen flow rates in children with bronchiolitis. Nasal prong oxygen flow rates should be used with caution when assessing the severity of bronchiolitis in children.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
