RESUMEN

The influence of variables that might affect the accuracy of pulse oximetry (SpO2) recordings in critically ill patients is not well established. We sought to describe the relationship between paired SpO2/SaO2 (oxygen saturation via arterial blood gas analysis) in adult intensive care unit (ICU) patients and to describe the diagnostic performance of SpO2 in detecting low SaO2 and PaO2. A paired SpO2/SaO2 measurement was obtained from 404 adults in ICU. Measurements were used to calculate bias, precision, and limits of agreement. Associations between bias and variables including vasopressor and inotrope use, capillary refill time, hand temperature, pulse pressure, body temperature, oximeter model, and skin colour were estimated. There was no overall statistically significant bias in paired SpO2/SaO2 measurements; observed limits of agreement were +/-4.4%. However, body temperature, oximeter model, and skin colour, were statistically significantly associated with the degree of bias. SpO2 <89% had a sensitivity of 3/7 (42.9%; 95% confidence intervals, CI, 9.9% to 81.6%) and a specificity of 344/384 (89.6%; 95% CI 86.1% to 92.5%) for detecting SaO2 <89%. The absence of statistically significant bias in paired SpO2/SaO2 in adult ICU patients provides support for the use of pulse oximetry to titrate oxygen therapy. However, SpO2 recordings alone should be used cautiously when SaO2 recordings of 4.4% higher or lower than the observed SpO2 would be of concern. A range of variables relevant to the critically ill had little or no effect on bias.

RESUMEN

In this study we investigated the effect of the selective and potent thromboxane A2 (TxA2) receptor antagonist GR32191 on smooth muscle contraction induced by the TxA2 analogue U46619, prostaglandin (PG) D2, PGF2 alpha, and methacholine (MCh) in guinea pig airways in vitro and the airways response provoked by inhaled PGD2 and MCh in asthmatic subjects in vivo. GR32191 antagonized competitively the contractile responses of all three prostanoids to a similar degree but had no effect on MCh-induced contractions. In asthmatic subjects GR32191, in a single oral dose of 80 mg, did not affect base-line airway caliber or MCh-induced broncho-constriction but caused significant inhibition of PGD2-induced bronchoconstriction, displacing the concentration-response curves to the right by greater than 10-fold. The effect of the same oral dose of GR32191 on allergen-induced immediate bronchoconstriction was subsequently investigated in allergic asthmatic subjects. In individual subjects, GR32191 inhibited to varying degrees the overall bronchoconstrictor response, with the maximum effect occurring between 10 and 30 min after allergen challenge. These studies suggest that prostanoids contribute to the immediate bronchoconstriction induced by inhaled allergen in allergic asthmatics, and that this effect is mediated by stimulation of a thromboxane receptor.
