目的:为了检查在三级医院住院的成年人中补充氧气(O2)的实践现状,我们记录了:接受O2的患者比例;他们的外周血氧饱和度(SpO 2); SpO 2是否在目标范围内,高于或低于目标范围;患者是否有补充O2的订单和目标SpO 2范围。在811例住院患者中,153例(19%)接受补充O2。49%在推荐范围内,55%以上,1%以下。所有接受O2补充的COPD患者的SpO 2均超过92%,使他们面临高碳酸血症的风险。只有43%的患者对氧气有一个相关的顺序,只有52%的患者与O2的顺序有一个目标SpO 2 range.Conclusions:我们的研究结果表明,广泛的高氧在住院患者和氧气,一个非常常见的治疗,是经常没有任何书面命令管理。这些发现强调了对O2实施安全处方措施的机会,类似于其他处方药。
Objectives: To examine the current state of practice of oxygen (O2) supplementation in adults hospitalized in a tertiary hospital admitted to medical-surgical floors.Methods: We recorded: the proportion of patients on O2; their peripheral O2 saturation (SpO2); if the SpO2 was within, above, or below the target range; if patients had an order for O2 supplementation and a target SpO2 range.Results: Among 811 hospitalized patients, 153 (19%) were on supplemental O2. Forty-nine percent were in the recommended range, 55% above, and 1% below. All patients with COPD on O2 supplementation had a SpO2 of more than 92% exposing them to the risk of hypercarbia. Only 43% of patients on oxygen had an associated order and only 52% of patients with an O2 order had an order for a goal SpO2 range.Conclusions: Our results demonstrate widespread hyperoxia among hospitalized patients and that oxygen, a very common therapy, is being administered frequently without any written order. These findings highlight the opportunity to implement safe prescribing measures for O2, similar to other prescribed medications.
