[Changes in homeostatic parameters during transportation of patients from the operating room to the resuscitation and intensive care unit]. / Izmenenie nekotorykh pokazatelei gomeostaza v period transportirovki bol'nykh iz operatsionnoi v otdelenie reanimatsii i intensivnoi terapii.

Oxygen balance, acid-base balance, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, heart rate, central and peripheral temperature have been investigated in patients after abdominal, thoracic and vascular surgery during transportation from the operation room into an intensive care unit, using different respiratory techniques and inhaled mixture composition. It has been shown that spontaneous respiration leads to the onset of arterial hypoxemia, which is more pronounced in patients after thoracic surgery. Inhalation of vapourized O2 through nasal catheters during transportation reduces the incidence and degree of arterial hypoxemia. Assisted lung ventilation with O2 prevents the onset of arterial hypoxemia during transportation.
