This target oxygen saturation was justified by a meta-analysis of previous phase 2 trials testing a lower oxygen target in patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. In that meta-analysis, there was a range of different "low" oxygen targets. The largest study was by Young et al, which randomized 166 patients with suspected hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy to receive an oxygen saturation of 90% to 97% compared with standard care.

Lower vs Higher Oxygen Saturation Targets and Survival to Hospital Discharge Among Patients Resuscitated After Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest. jamanetwork.com To the Editor A recent study compared the effect of 2 oxygen saturation targets on survival after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. The authors have focused on an important area of postresuscitation care, because hyperoxia (defined as Pao2 >300 mm Hg) has shown to be associated with worse outcomes. In contrast to a 2022 study, the study by Dr Bernard and colleagues did not report any benefit for low oxygen targets, although the oxygen target for the intervention group (peripheral oxygen saturation of 90%-94%) was far below international recommendations. Thus, this trial compared hypoxia with normoxia rather than…

Currently, more than 52 million persons in the US consume acetaminophen on a weekly basis, although many of them are unaware that they are consuming medications that contain acetaminophen.
