Identification of critical degree of emergency hypoxemia patients based on pulse oxygen saturation / 中国实用护理杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the risk stratification of pulse oxygen saturation (SpO2) in patients with emergency hypoxemia patients, and to provide evidence for the identification of critical illness. Methods Self-designed clinical data registration form for patients with emergency hypoxemia , and prospective collection of 344 hypoxemia patients in the emergency department of Peking Union Medical College Hospital from March to April in 2018, including baseline data (name, gender, age, ID number, date, registration time), hospitalization method, past history, patient complaint and diagnosis, triage level, SpO2, whether to enter the rescue room, etc. Results All of 344 emergency hypoxemia patients, there were 163 cases (21.2% ) of ambulances, and 107 cases (31.1% ) of patients requiring immediate rescue. There were 54 cases (25.7%) and 53 cases (39.6%) in need of immediate rescue in day shift (800-2000) and night shift (2000-800 next day), with 900-1000, 1400-1500, 2000-2400 in the majority. There was a statistical difference in the way of hospitalization, triage, and SpO(2 25.780, t=4.722, all P<0.05). SpO2 risk stratification was 0.905 in patients without pulmonary disease, and SpO2 risk stratification in patients with lung disease was 0.765. Conclusions Patients with hypoxemia account for a certain proportion in the emergency department and are in critical condition. The degree of critical condition of patients can be evaluated based on whether they have lung diseases, and the risk stratification of patients can be accurately determined with the help of SpO2, so as to further guide the hierarchical treatment measures for patients with emergency hypoxemia and rationally optimize the χ2=29.537, allocation of emergency resources.
